Disorder in Davidson’s Mains


Many residents have contacted us about the crime and disorder which has been seen in Davidson’s Mains over the last few nights.

This has involved groups of teenagers, with particualr problems around Cramond Road South, Barnton Avenue, Barnton Park and Main Street. There have also been problems inside the grounds of Lauriston Castle.

The issues appear to have start last Wednesday and involved an alleged assault outside Ye Olde Inn. There have also been incidents of serious vandalism to cars, particularly on Cramond Road South.

We have been in keeping in close contact with the local police. We are pleased to see how seriously they are taking this issue and the fact some extra resources were brought in to try and address the problems.

If you see and want to report any anti-social behaviour then please ring 101. If and only if the matter is an emergency then please phone 999.
