    'Disgusting' smell wafts over Edinburgh north and west

    Anyone smelled it who can describe? Is it a rotten egg smell? Nothing detectable at the Gyle. If SEPA are involved it may be an algal or bacterial bloom along the foreshore or something similar.

    It's the Gogarbank chicken farm, apparently. I can almost smell something in the air right now in Sighthill, a sort of badly cooked meat sort of smell.

    Goodness knows what's happened but I hope the animals are ok.

    @arellcat - it is highly unlikely that the animals are Ok. Stuck in their wee slots churning out the eggs or waiting to be boiled up into Chunky Chicken, not much of a life.

    Is it the usual smell just more pungent due to wind direction or climactic conditions or something more horrid?

    I love the smells from the Burton biscuit factory
