Jimmy Savile’s former Glen Coe home again targeted by vandals

THE Highland hideaway of shamed former TV personality Jimmy Savile has been targeted by vandals for the third time.

Orange paint was sprayed on the walls and windows of the cottage in Glencoe which follows two earlier attacks on the property earlier this month.

A symbol of an eye inside a triangle was part of the graffiti, copying an image from a previous vandalism.

Allt Na Reigh cottage was boarded up and whitewashed after two earlier incidents. The latest attack occurred overnight on Sunday into Monday.

A Northern Constabulary spokesman said police were investigating and appealed for information from the public.

Alister Sutherland, chairman of Glencoe and Glen Etive Community Council, said: “The general feeling among the community is that people absolutely condemn this vandalism.”

He added: “People still think it would be a good idea to use it [the cottage] for good causes. Something good could come out of it.”
