Stonehaven couple want people to stop using their courtyard as a toilet

Residents of Stonehaven’s Market Lane flats have had enough of people using their courtyard as a toilet.

Luke and Kate Ellix have had to clean up urine and rubbish left on their property for years but this week the couple found human faeces on their doorstep.

The couple have a three year-old daughter who plays in the courtyard and her parents just want it to be a nice area for her to enjoy.

Luke spoke of his disgust and outrage at the potential hazard it caused.
