A large detached property in Birmingham has been turned into a makeshift TIP - after tonnes of rubbish was dumped on the driveway following a bitter legal dispute.

The city has been plagued by mounds of trash piling up on the streets in the wake of the recent bin strikes but this Victorian home has become an impromptu dump.

Shocking images show how household rubbish, car parts and tyres have been abandoned on the drive of the house on Church Lane, in Handsworth.
