South Queensferry graffiti: Police appeal for information

POLICE are appealing for information following reports of offensive graffiti in South Queensferry.

The vandalism is reoccurring and we are aware of six instances between the end of December 2025 and Tuesday, 21 April, 2026.

The graffiti is being removed by the council each time before appearing again. It is mainly happening in the Morison Gardens underpass, and Society Road areas.

Police Constable Euan Sinclair said: “Since this was reported to us, we have been conducting enquiries to trace the person, or persons, responsible. It is wholly unacceptable for this to continue happening.

“I would urge anyone who may have been in these areas and seen anything suspicious, or who has any information to help us identity and trace those responsible, to contact us.”

Anyone with information is asked to contact Police Scotland on 101, quoting incident number 2772 of 6 April, 2026.

Fascist graffiti at Granton

Karen Bates made a disturbing discovery at Granton  breakwater yesterday …

In contrast to the positivity of wild swimmers at Granton Harbour, we have, in the B listed WWII outposts on the Eastern Breakwater, a pop-up toilet & skip decorated with hostile, racist graffiti.

It can’t be the responsibility of #volunteers to clean up this health hazard. These structures now belong to Granton Central Developments Ltd, bought from Forth Ports.

They either need to be preserved & enhanced as historic buildings, or at least cleaned up so that the many fishers & walkers who enjoy this amazing place, can have a healthy shelter.

I didn’t want to hang around in the stench of urine to read all the #graffiti, but the photos speak for themselves.

Fascist graffiti at Granton Breakwater?! It MUST go. Utterly unacceptable, as are the piles of beer cans, #plasticbottles & fishing litter that strangle our #sealife.

The Council could perhaps put pressure on Granton Central Developments Ltd to maintain their property in a way that is even vaguely in accordance with acceptable standards for a public place, enjoyed by the many.

Graffiti comments include “Gas them”, “Kill Poles”, “Hitler was right”, “Polish c**** and more of the same.

Karen has contacted the relevant authorities. Here’s hoping for prompt action – Editor.
