A homeowner ordered to repaint the pink front door of her house in Edinburgh 's New Town has painted it green. Mum-of-two Miranda Dickson, 49, inherited her parents' Georgian home in 2019 in the World Heritage conservation area.
In 2021 she got the front door professionally painted with Dulux pink paint. But in October 2022 she was threatened with a £20,000 fine by the City of Edinburgh Council.
Miranda, who grew up in the house, has now painted it green and told the BBC it cost her £500 and she needed planning permission. However she now has a pink bathroom and pink hall staircase, but said she is still upset about it.
