Pictures show a trail of white, snow-like substance trailing along the football field, grass and play area.

The parish council says it has reported the anti-social behaviour to the police and provided the CCTV of the incident too.

Speaking of the discovery in a post on Facebook, Loose Parish council said: “This is so irritating and our team will try to get it cleared up early in the morning before it causes too much harm to wildlife and the environment.

“Park users please take care – the hard court area is particularly slippery and dog walkers please be vigilant so your pets don’t get curious and ingest any.

“We will be there from 8am.”
