Located just off of one of the most well-used high streets in the capital is a plot of land piled high with waste and dubbed the worst fly tipping area in Edinburgh.
A vacant privately owned site that lies just off Niddrie Mains Road, across the street from Food Plus Grocery, has been used as a dumping ground by illegal fly tippers causing what locals fear is a health and safety nightmare.
The scene of the vacant space is filled with entire dumped kitchens, the charred remains of wooden furniture and smashed tiles from bathroom revamps.
