Scottish fire crews have been battling a massive blaze that broke out across Arthur's Seat in Edinburgh during the city's busiest tourist period of the year.
Scottish Fire and Rescue Service (SFRS) was first advised of the wildfire at the Edinburgh landmark just after 4pm on Sunday, August 10, a popular time for hikers to be on the hill, which sits near the center of the capital city. Crews said the fire had affected "a large area of gorse" and large plumes of smoke were visible from a distance.
