beauty spot will be closed to the public in a bid to deter day-trippers who have been flooding the area. Residents living near the Devil's Pulpit in Stirlingshire have been left furious by a surge of visitors over the past two months despite coronavirus restrictions being in place.
Stirling Council chiefs say their "hands were tied" and had to close the popular attraction because of a request from the landowner.
They have now implemented a temporary closure of Finnich Glen, near Killearn, which will come into place tonight at 11.59pm.Cllr Jim Thomson, Environment & Housing convener, said: “This is a strong measure to tackle a serious problem.“We are blessed with many rural beauty spots across the Stirling Council area but the influx of day.
