Kirkcudbright residents furious after flowers destroyed by "mindless vandalism"

Kirkcudbright residents have been left furious after a host of golden daffodils were destroyed in an act of “mindless vandalism”.

The beautiful blooms on Moat Brae have been praised by locals and visitors alike for brightening up the town at the start of spring.

But over the weekend the flowers were flattened in what has been described as a “despicable” act.
