Black smoke has been seen billowing from fires at a suspected illegal dumping ground that is under investigation. Two blazes were seen today at Raspberry Hill Park Farm in Iwade near Sittingbourne. The site is currently under scrutiny from Kent County Council (KCC), Swale council, the Environment Agency (EA), and police. A joint probe was launched in May last year. Villagers raised their concerns this morning after black smoke was seen coming from the alleged tip at around 11am.

A grandmother who was knocked off her mobility scooter by a car is trying to trace two Good Samaritans who stopped to help her. Pennie Simpson had been travelling on the path along Borden Lane, Sittingbourne, on her way home from Tesco Express when the vehicle, which was reversing off a driveway, threw her to the pavement. The 57-year-old, who has lived in Borden for the last seven years, says she always checks driveways but did not see the car back up until it was too late.
