Witnesses are being sought after fly-tippers dumped a massive pile of rubbish in a country lane.
The heap, including pallets, plastic troughs and a broken barbecue, was recently found at Gypsy Lane in Grove which is a public right of way.
The local authority is now appealing for help to catch those responsible.
Vale of White Horse District Council's environmental enforcement officers issue Fixed Penalty Notices of £80 (reduced to £50 if paid within 10 days) to anyone over the age of 18 for dropping litter on public land or along a highway.
If a person refuses to pay they can be taken to the local magistrates court for the offence and fined up to £2,500.
Anyone with information should contact the council's Environmental Enforcement team at envirocrime@southandvale.gov.uk or call 01235 422146.
