Thousands of menus for a takeaway in Glasgow have been found dumped at the foot of the Campsie Fells, just over 10 miles to the north of the city.
The huge pile of leaflets were for Tandoori Flavour in the Tollcross area and was still smouldering having been set on fire when it was discovered by a member of the public over the weekend.
The member of the public shared news of the find on local Facebook group Tollcross Matters, alongside images showing the partially-burnt pile lying on an area of tarmac near the hills.
Tandoori Flavour told Glasgow Live that they had been made aware of the issue by local customers who alerted them to the post on the Facebook group.
They said that the incident was the work of a distributor they had paid in good faith to deliver the menus to the local Tollcross area, and have been left significantly out of pocket as a result.
They also said they have tried to make contact with the distributor but have had no success.
A spokesman for Stirling Council said: "A Council Officer attended the location, which borders Stirling, East Dunbartonshire and North Lanarkshire Councils, after Glasgow Live alerted Stirling Council to this appalling act of fly-tipping,
“The rubbish has now been removed for disposal and an investigation is underway into the incident.
“Fly-tipping is a crime and there is no excuse for it. If a person is caught, they could be fined up to £40,000 and face up to 6 months in prison.
“Information on how to report fly-tipping and the serious penalties for those caught is available on the Stirling Council website: https://www.stirling.gov.uk/bins-waste-recycling/fly-tipping/."
