Mess - Dave Blackwell inspects dumped asbestos Picture: MAXINE CLARKE
It comes just weeks after councillors attacked motorbike riding yobs who are also wrecking Canvey Heights country park, Newlands, and turning it into a "dumping ground".
Leader of the Canvey Independent Party Dave Blackwell is trying to get the sheets removed.
But he said the park's gate has also been knocked down, leaving the park open to abuse.
He said: "This is very sad. It is one thing after another and a beauty spot is being turned into a dumping ground."
