A property in the Highlands which was once owned by Jimmy Savile has been damaged by a fire.
An outbuilding at the Allt-na-Reigh cottage in Glen Coe caught fire on Saturday evening, leading to the closure of the A82.
Fire crews extinguished the blaze and the road was reopened on Sunday.
Highlands Council has previously given permission for the site to be demolished and replaced with a new home.
The site lay abandoned for years and has been vandalised repeatedly since Savile’s death in 2011, and his exposure as a prolific sex offender.
A spokesperson for Police Scotland said: “Emergency services attended and the fire was extinguished by Scottish Fire and Rescue Service.
“Inquiries are ongoing to establish the full circumstances.”
