An Edinburgh resident has captured the hair-raising moment a hedge outside a residential property burst into flames.
The passer-by spotted flames on Saturday, February 11, outside Cameron Toll Shopping Centre. The Scottish Fire and Rescue Service confirmed that the incident was a "controlled burning" and they had been notified prior to the incident.
Images show the garden hedge, on Lady Road, in flames with a single pedestrian standing on the pavement on the other side. The blaze appears to have originated from the property's front garden before spreading.
