Piles of wood and plaster dumped near a children's play area have been branded as "disgusting" fly-tipping.
The building waste was found abandoned along the path near the entrance to Enfield Road Playground, in Twenty Acre Wood, West Earlham.

Leon Best was walking his dog, Gina, last week when he noticed the debris.
The 72-year-old said: "It was completely covering the path - there was so much of it.

"There was wood, plaster and other building equipment just dumped right in the way.
"I wasn't happy - I chucked a few bits off the path to get through but I was frightened Gina might accidentally stand on any nails or screws.

"I think it's disgusting.
"I know you have to pay to take stuff like this to the tip, but you can't just dump it anywhere.
"A few days later it had been moved off the path, on to the grass, with a cover over it and was taped off."

A Norfolk County Council spokeswoman said: "The fly-tipping was taken away by a specialist contractor last week."
Fly-tipping is a criminal offence punishable by a fixed penalty notice, an unlimited fine and/or a prison sentence of up to five years.
Mr Best believes that something needs to be put in place to stop incidents like this happening again.

He added: "There needs to be some posts or bollards put at the entrance to the park - something which has enough room for buggies or mobility scooters to get through but stops vehicles getting through.
"The path acts as a busy thoroughfare for people wanting to get to West Earlham shopping centre.
"I can't understand why someone would do that because it stops anyone from being able to get through."
