A map that detailed portions of the Scottish home of Britain’s Queen Elizabeth II has been located by a Jack Russell terrier, sources told The Daily Telegraph.


Unidentified sources said the map found by journalist Joan Burnie’s dog in the Scottish city of Edinburgh only showed portions of the Palace of Holyroodhouse that were already accessible to the general public, The Daily Telegraph said Friday.


Nonetheless, a palace representative said, the map represented a breach of security for the royal residence.


We acknowledge this has been a security breach which we are taking very seriously and are currently investigating, the unidentified palace official said.


Burnie, who writes for the Daily Record, said her dog Polly found the map along with a letter under a bush during a routine walk.


Polly saw them underneath a bush on the path and came out with the plans in her mouth, Burnie said.


I took them from her to see what they were and that’s when I saw the letter. I was shocked to see the plans were for Holyroodhouse.
