Plans are being drawn up for a memorial garden after it emerged as the favoured option for families affected by the Aberdeen baby ashes scandal.

A number of locations in Hazlehead Park have been shortlisted by a Working Group taking charge of the memorial plans.

It emerged last year infants were being cremated alongside unrelated adults - with families told there were no remains.

Aberdeen City Council is now processing more than 200 compensation applications after past practices.
