Scotland's five-tier lockdown: What level has your area been put in?

Nicola Sturgeon has revealed what level each area of Scotland will fall into when the new five-tier lockdown comes into force.

The First Minister laid out the plans yesterday as she confirmed that no part of the country has been put in the highest or lowest tier.

Each of the country's 32 local authorities fall into a level - which go from zero to four - depending on coronavirus infection rates.

The new restrictions will start in Scotland from Monday, November 2 - which tier has your area been put into and what are the rules?
