Glasgow resident spots 'foul effluent' flowing into River Kelvin near to Botanic Gardens

A furious Glasgow resident has called out Scottish Water after discovering what they believe to be "foul effluent" flowing into the River Kelvin near to the Botanic Gardens.

Pat Toms spotted the "effluent" lying along the riverside yesterday near to a new Scottish Water sewage facility constructed not far from the Humpback pedestrian bridge over the river.

Photographs taken by Pat show brown matter alongside the river bank, which they say appeared in the previous 24 hours. Pat also notes that they spotted "wipes hanging off the grating at new overflow pipes".
