Glasgow east end residents 'unable to open their windows' due to smell coming from nearby landfill

Residents in the east end of the city have been plagued by the 'pungent' smell from a nearby dump for the last two months.

Locals have said the stench coming Paterson's landfill near Mount Vernon is so strong they can't open their windows and, in some cases, can even smell it inside their homes.

The issue has become so potent that SEPA officers have had to step in and order the company to take action less than a month after they were fined for the same issue.
