Tom Walne has been left angered by the fly-tipping incident
A well-known Suffolk farmer has been left angered by fly-tipping near his paddock.
Tom Walne, 87, said two large loads of broken concrete were dumped near his paddock at the bottom of Whitton Hill over the weekend.
Mr Walne, who has owned a farm in Old Norwich Road, Ipswich, for more than 30 years, said one load of hardcore concrete was dumped sometime on Saturday while another heap was added on Sunday.
He said: Somebody must have seen that being loaded somewhere. That s not somebody who has chucked a couple of black bags in a car boot and dumped it.

Hopes of opening a new super-surgery in north-west Ipswich have been delayed after an ambitious plan to convert an Aldi store was put on hold.
The supermarket s branch in Meredith Road was put on the market last year, because Aldi planned to close it when opening a new, larger store in Europa Way, off Sproughton Road, in the spring.
However, at the end of the year it was confirmed that the supermarket site had been taken off the market because Aldi wanted to see what demand was like if it retained both sites.
