East Lothian beauty spot trashed by feckless wild campers leaving kit and litter

Littering at an East Lothian beauty spot has been branded 'shocking' by local residents.

A picture uploaded to social media shows a mound of items left behind by campers, including a sleeping bag and blow-up mattress box, as well as bags of rubbish and a used barbeque. Gillian, a local resident who spotted the leftover trash on Gullane Beach on Wednesday morning, said there was "no one in sight" when she stumbled upon it.

Gillian told Edinburgh Live: "It’s such a beautiful coastline, enjoyed by so many residents and visitors alike that it’s always a shock when a tiny minority behave in a way that causes damage to the environment and wildlife.
