Dave Vandome, nature reserve manager, said: “It first came to my attention on Thursday morning but I guess it must have been left sometime on Wednesday evening going into early Thursday morning.

“I found out about it on a phone call.

“It’s very depressing really and horrible.

“The freezer is jam-packed with rubbish so trying to move that will be difficult.”
