Villagers have spoken about their disgust at an all-night illegal rave where revellers allegedly used the village green as a public toilet.

One villager, Suzanne McCloud, said witnesses in Stillingfleet had seen people ‘defecating’ on the village green.

“Someone saw four young people getting out of a car, defecating on the green, and then getting back into the car and lighting some joints,” she said.

Police have now arrested nine people in connection with the rave at the former Stillingfleet mine, which started at about 10.30pm on Saturday and went on right though the night and into the next morning.

The nine, all men in their 20s and 30s, have been released on bail while police inquiries continue.

But as reported in The Press, it was not until about 1pm on Sunday that police seized and impounded several vans full of music equipment.
