“It’s going to be an absolute nightmare,” said Scott, a local resident, as he surveyed the damage caused after another night of fireworks disorder on Hay Avenue in Niddrie, a suburb in the south-east of Edinburgh.
The road was scorched with firework marks and in need of repair, while a discarded brick lay on the street. Local residents have tidied what they could of the remnants of fireworks, but Scott said they were worried this was only the beginning.
