The Environment Agency says the source of pollution has been stopped - but people are being asked not to go in the stream.

On social media, the Environment Agency said yesterday: "Our officers were on site at Mawgan Porth Beach this morning taking samples from the stream and bathing water.

"The source of pollution has been stopped but there is still a risk of reduced bathing water quality and the public are advised not to go in the stream."
