These are salt, not litter bins!

Takeaway wrappers, pizza boxes and bags of dog poo have been discovered in salt boxes over the weekend.

Residents have done their bit to keep roads and pavements open in town but sadly other residents have been using the salt bins to dump their rubbish.

This was one of several pictures sent to us showing what they have been used for during the nicer weather!

“It was a disgusting sight to open the bin and see what was in there,” said our reader. “There are plenty of bins around the town so no excuse to use the salt bins to dump their trash!”

Welshpool has been blanketed by its heaviest snow shower for several years, but forecasters predict it will clear as the week progresses.
