Gut-wrenching photos show Edinburgh's fly tipping hotspot with whole flats dumped

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.

The scene of the vacant space is filled with entire dumped kitchens, the charred remains of wooden furniture and smashed tiles from bathroom revamps.
