A national charity appeared to perform a U-turn this week when one of its directors announced it was no longer seeking to evict a couple from their home in Dunkeld.
The Perthshire Advertiser reported two months ago the National Trust for Scotland (NTS) had served notice on community councillor Chris Claydon and her partner Scott Trotter to quit Castle Cleirach where Chris has lived for the past 18 years.
The charity said the reason it needed to evict the pair was their rented property required urgent structural repairs and they could not remain in the house while the work was carried out.
