James Gibb repeatedly struck out and kicked a front door at the property at Riverside Drive last December.

The 59-year-old shouted, swore and refused to leave when asked to do so by the householder.

Gibb, of Thurston Manor Caravan Park, by Innerwick, pleaded guilty at Edinburgh Sheriff Court last month.

He returned to the dock for sentencing last Tuesday, where Sheriff Peter McCormack said he must pay a fine of £320. Gibb admitted behaving in a threatening or abusive manner on December 16 last year.
