The paedophile’s former cottage, Allt-na-Reigh, has turned into a dark tourist attraction for many walkers visiting the location.Â
However, it has been at the centre of health and safety concerns as the doors and windows have been smashed in or torn off.
The interior features broken glass and rubbish from smashed walls and roofing.Â
