FOUND: Two teens charged after historic scots site defaced with paint - What They Never Told You

Two teenagers have been charged after a historic West Lothian site was reportedly vandalised. Officers were called to Linlithgow Palace at around 9pm on Thursday April 20 after the historic walls and flagstones were "defaced with paint".

Boys aged 13 and 14 have since been charged in relation to the alleged incident. The teens have been referred to the Children’s Reporter.

The palace which was built by James V in 1538 was the birthplace of Mary Queen of Scots. Historic Environment Scotland (HES) said conservation teams are working to access the damage.
