Louts have targeted a popular Lockerbie nature reserve with a prolonged campaign of “depressing” vandalism.
An estimated £1,000 worth of damage has been caused at the Eskrigg site in the last six weeks with commemorative plaques, memorial poles and bird feeders smashed and strewn around the place.
Reserve manager Jim Rae said: “It’s very disappointing. Most local people are very good and appreciate the facility but to have two or three that spoil the area for everybody’s enjoyment it’s very disheartening. It’s quite depressing.”
