Tonnes of pigeon faeces removed from Rye's Landgate Arch

The bird droppings, which were almost three feet deep, had built up inside the towers of the Landgate Arch in Rye, East Sussex.

'Swamped with poo'

Mike Walker, managing director for CountyClean Environmental Services, said:"Whilst we've removed other massive blockages such giant fatbergs in sewers, we have never seen such a monumental mass of festering faeces before.

"The build up behind the doors was so big we had to force the doors open. Once inside, it was like walking on a giant chocolate cake and the smell was awful - even through a facemask."

"The floors of the towers and the steps leading to the top were swamped with 25 tonnes of poo. We filled our tanker several times over."
