Residents in Heywood, Bury, and Chorley are enduring severe odour issues from nearby landfill sites, with the 'eggy' and 'disgusting' smell from the Pilsworth South site being compared to a 'stink bomb on steroids'. The stench, persisting since last summer, is causing distress and health concerns among locals, who are calling for action to mitigate the foul odour. In the midst of these issues, a new housing development has been approved on a former landfill site, despite methane concerns.
