POLICE in Herefordshire have ordered people to stop using off-road motorbikes at Borders beauty spots.

They have stressed that it is illegal to ride scrambler or trail biks in the Black Mountains on the Herefordshire-Wales border.

Officers based in Herefordshire's Golden Valley area say they are receiving an increasing number of complaints and have released a picture of a biker they want to get in touch with.

The Black Mountains are the most easterly of a range of hills that comprise the Brecon Beacons National Park.

The English side of the range crosses Offa’s Dyke National Trail and includes the summit of Black Hill (which is also known as the Cat’s Back).
