The River Eden, flowing eastwards at Ramornie Bridge in Fife. The Eden - roughly 50km in length - flows from Burnside, and enters the North Sea north of St Andrews. The banks of the river here contain extensive growth of the invasive plant species Himalayan Balsam and Giant Hogweed. NHS UK warns that "If the sap of this plant comes into contact with your skin, it can cause severe, painful burns and make your skin sensitive to strong sunlight."
