These heaps of mixed vegetable and plastic waste are the remains of strawberry beds from the polytunnels nearby. Strawberry plants have to be replaced every few years, and the old beds are dug up and dumped to make way for the new. I am told that the plastic is biodegradable, so in time all this will decompose into potentially useful compost.
