Over the past week, residents have been experiencing a foul smell in Sherburn in Elmet across the village. It has not yet been confirmed where the smell is coming from, but it is thought that it is likely to be coming from farmers fertilising nearby fields. However, the actual source of the smell has yet to be confirmed.
If you’re concerned or would like to report the foul smell, Selby District Council has advised residents to contact the Environment Agency on 0800 807 060.
