A CAR has been abandoned in a turning area near a popular beauty spot and tourist attraction in the Malvern Hills and could soon be seized and destroyed.
The silver Peugeot 308 was spotted abandoned in a turning area in Foley Terrace near St Ann's Well in the Malvern Hills on Saturday (March 30).
The car has now been there for almost a month according to a document placed on the passenger side window warning the owner to remove the vehicle.
The notice from Malvern Hills District Council reads: "The council believes that this vehicle has been abandoned without lawful authority and is harming the amenity of the local area.
"There is a possibility that the vehicle may also attract vandalism if left in situ."
The notice, headed 'Removal of Abandoned Vehicle For Destruction', was made on March 4 and warns the owner that unless the vehicle is removed it can be taken to a depot and disposed of under the Refuse Disposal (Amenity) Act 1978.
The vehicle was drawing the attention of visitors walking up to St Ann's Well on Saturday.
The Grade II listed building is owned and cared for by the Malvern Hills Trust.
