Mini-Explores

This blog post is dedicated to those smaller explores in which either not enough photographs were taken to allow for a full post on the location or there was very little to see of the building(s).

Farmhouse Ruin

 This first location was discovered by chance whilst driving on the motorway in Glasgow. The farmhouse is visible just off the road, however, reaching it was rather difficult as it was located at the dead end of a single road which was rather obscure.

The buildings which are accessible contain mainly rubble and appear to be degrading over time. One of the outbuildings looks as though it used to function as a milking parlour for dairy cows.

As evident, the ceiling has fallen through in the main house and completely blocks access to the building.

Derelict Mansion

 Built back in the 1800s, this mansion has taken many forms over the years before becoming as it is now. The building functioned as a home, school and even a hotel before its closure.

Abandoned Castle Ayrshire

Located in the Ayrshire countryside, this next location was a little trickier to get to but definitely worth the journey. Standing at the beginning of the path is an outbuilding which pales in comparison to the main structure further along. In fact, the sheer enormity of the ruin was significantly surprising when taking into account the route to the castle. Towards the end of the pathway was a small gap in the trees which opened out to a large expanse of intertwined overarching branches. When the trail is followed, it opens out to reveal a glimpse of the ruin itself. The size of this particular structure outranks that of any other location visited previously and, despite it being constructed in 1790, the building is significantly in-tact. Of what remains within the ruin, the first room which makes an impression is concealed behind a heavy metal door and was most likely used as a cellar yet there is something considerably eerie about it.

Castle Ruin Stirling

Declared derelict in 1973, this castle has a rich history with the building standing on the site of what used to be home to a family of dukes.

Source: Atlas Obscura The altogether decaying nature of the ruin is noticeable with rubble scattered, walls crumbling and missing floors throughout the extent of the property. This can easily be chalked up to its exposure to year-round harsh S...
