A long, empty mill interior features a row of red cast-iron columns and beams forming a tunnel. Wooden floors lead to a distant light, flanked by windows and worn walls.

An abandoned industrial interior features mossy brick walls, a decaying roof, and a prominent green door. The door reads "DESIGNS ON YOU," surrounded by debris on the floor.

An abandoned room with peeling, distressed walls, large windows, and an open wooden door revealing a yellow hallway. The word "EXIT" is painted in red above the door.

An abandoned room with a wooden floor, slatted ceiling, and arched windows, lit by natural light. A wooden hand truck stands on the right.

🔥Our history, going up in flames! Fires are destroying so many of our historical Victoria mills. Big Mill in Leek and Middleton Mill in Rochdale are this weekend's casualties.

Dalton Mills in Keighley is another sad example. I photographed this wonderful […]

An abandoned, grand hall with tiered seating and arched ceilings. Stained-glass windows illuminate this former church, later a nightclub

A large, retro-style framed painting of a theatrical scene hangs in an abandoned nightclub, flanked by two circular equal signs.

A large, ornate pipe organ fills the back wall of a decaying, abandoned hall, once a church and later a nightclub. T

A old dark brown sign on a light, textured wall points right. It reads: "Blocks G H I & J."

⛪An abandoned church hall, later used as a nightclub. Somewhere in England.

Built in 1903 as a Methodist Central Hall, before its 1990s rebirth as a nightclub. It was a legendary rave venue for two decades.

The building’s history hasn't been without tragedy […]

The Lion Chambers on Hope Street in Glasgow. Designed by James Salmon Jnr in a mix of Glasgow Style and Scottish Baronial, it was built in 1905 using the Hennebique System of reinforced concrete, but is now in a rather sad state.

Designed by J.L. Murray in an imposing Scots Baronial style, it opened in 1895 as the Lanark District Asylum. A tubercolosis sanatorium was added to the site in 1906.

A total of 75 schools were constructed by the Glasgow School Board between 1874 and 1916, and this is one of the oldest still standing. It currently lies empty and abandoned.

Thus, it provides a template for saving empty listed buildings across the city which are otherwise at risk of being lost while increasing the supply of affordable housing.

However, in the last few years it's become almost completely obscured by trees, which will also be damaging it further. Now largely hidden from view, it's likely to collapse and disappear without anyone really noticing.

It's B listed, but has been left to fall into a ruin. One of the last surviving farm houses in Glasgow, as recently as the early 2010s, you could clearly see most of this building.

However, in the last few years it has been very sympathetically turned into residential housing (including recasting the beautiful, Thomsonesque original railings) ensuring that this little gem will be safe for years to come.

This is a great example of how a derelict, at-risk building can be bought back into use and so saved for the future. Gutted by fire in 2005, and missing its roof, this B Listed building was, for many years, pretty much abandoned and left to fall apart.

This building was once home to an eclectic mix of retail outlets lawyers chambers and artists studios, but due to structural issues, it has been mostly empty since 2010.
