David Manners, 11th Duke of Rutland and his stink pits: utterly repugnant and repulsive.

'Stink pits' contain the rotting corpses of animals and birds. Their stench is supposed to deter other animals who have not yet been consigned.
David Manners, 11th Duke of Rutland

This is my letter sent to David Manners, 11th Duke of Rutland on 30 November 2020 whose land a 'stink pit' was discovered by Tim Birch.
