Mystery of ‘horrid smell’ wafting over Horsham

Some say that the ‘horrid smell’ has left them feeling sick and many have taken to social media querying where the smell is coming from.

They say that the northern area of the town is most affected.

Some dismiss it as ‘the usual Horsham smell’ - a sewage-like aroma - which hits the town at various times almost every year.

Others blame a local sewage plant, or landfill - or fertilizer being distributed across farm fields.
