South Elmsall

A public inquiry is being held into the future use of the Minore recycling site in South Elmsall.

The plan for off-street council-run car parks in Wakefield could be put in place before Christmas.

Residents complained about a "putrid stench" from the centre on Hacking Lane in South Elmsall.

Residents have previously complained about a foul smell coming from the site in South Elmsall.

Ben Bates ordered his dogs to attack deer and birds before "boasting" about it online, police say.

The site causes "misery for the community and blights the environment", councillor George Ayre says.

The smell is described as "tar-like" but site operators deny there is an odour or risk to health.
