The town waited 25 years for LCC to open a tip (we have to call them recycling centres now, though frankly the re-use of beer and milk bottles and the re-use of cardboard boxes in the 1950s was far less ecologically damaging). It is run on the council's behalf by a local contractor and tool hire company. Recent council cuts mean it is now only open 4 days a week. The row of poplars is a traditional windbreak technique on the fen.
