Barrhead Councillor Dougie Yates has left a comment on the website, Barrhead, Scotland.
Latest news from the ER Magazine, Winter 2011. The magazine from East Renfrewshire Council. google.com/site/barrheadscotland/ regarding the future plans for Barrhead..
@Cortake I totally agree with you, I've always thought abandoned places are beautiful, it's kind of a full circle that things that are created from the elements of Earth are eventually absorbed and taken back by it.
@Cortake There is a beauty in the earth reclaiming a place but a sadness for the loss of the buildings where once people worked and had many memories.
no worries and thanks for keeping me posted with the shadows of history from the brother land of the celtic isles how alike our peoples are nations of many past kings warriors alike brave as any heart could be culture in you is the culture in me ..past culture art incraved stone the distance time brought us ..reminding just how close and all so near , highlands river streams through the fields of fire,abandoned scotland for it is in the shadow of the men that see nestled in bonds past history
you guys are doing a great job; world is changing, deeply. I think we're living a kind of digital revolution where the man work is done by computers and robots and business models have changed totally. Scotland is a beautiful and magic land...hope to come back for a vacation soon ;)
Nice video but I am not a fan of the color grading on the interior shots...The blue looks unnatural. Otherwise... I'm jealous as hell that you have such a nice facility to shoot and explore... *sigh
Before you start exploring derelict old factories etc, get some information on Asbestos and learn to spot it.
These places are often strewn with broken shards of it. If you disturb it, you could be in for a nasty shock in 20 or 30 years time. You could even take it home to your kids on your clothes.
Smokers 11x risk of lung cancer compared to non smokers
Smokers exposed to asbestos 55x risk of lung cancer.
@MrCyclist68 Definitely, very important that people are aware of this. It's also important to note that not all asbestos is bad but precautions must be taken on visiting these types of places.
Thank you so much for creating this channel! I always want to explore abandoned areas near me, but American trespassing laws are stringent and life destroying in cost for fines. Your quality is so high, I feel like I'm right beside you on your adventures! Thanks for the experience=D
@littlewingthing Thanks for saying so, nothing lasts forever but we can only try and document these places for future generations so mistakes can hopefully not be repeated.
You videos are unique and extremely thought provoking..what a waste..They should be responsible and remove these buildings...why just leave there...I really enjoy your work, but it is sad to see...
beautiful! this is the real face of corporate capitalism! Marx could not have said it better. Waste, dislocation, and the destruction of community and civil society. Even if that was not your intent, I still loved it!
@TRichmond1964 Thanks, yeah I think it's important to document the places being lost and what some might see as the failings of current society so they can be seen now and in the future.
Your videos really are breathtaking! I know many have said it before, but you have some of the best abandoned stuff on Youtube. I do this kind of thing myself (as you can see on my channel) but your professionalism and quality is truly stunning! Looking forward to more videos!
@bxx32 Thanks I appreciate it, yeah I just checked out your videos you've been to some really fascinating places as well some of the old houses are great :)
A lot of and I mean a lot of people lost good job's with the unnecessary Closure of this profitable Work Unit which was very successful for all the companies who used it! many of these people were are! close friend's! appalling closure! of a Factory which was well Government subsidised! constantly giving the companies huge financial gain.. :-/
And Alex Salmond wants to keep this all to himself? Keep up the good work, although I am sure it is time-consuming it does not go unnoticed. STay COsmic ...
Another good one. And if anyone died on the job there or if it was a great part of their life te spirit would probably want to make a visit .But the question is, would they see it as it is now -or as when the factory was in action? Hmm
great footage something very sad even the sound of silence carrys the voices of the past ,this now abanded castle where once a family of workers did their duty ,now all we are only reminded with the echos of those hands that worked , some of the many workers moved on to a different future and sadly some are in their graves ,but in the wind that echos in the hall ways there is laughter of the many people so nestled around each other , brick and stone abandoned and wind that echos nestle people
@dramaguy1000 Yeah it is sad to see it go to waste, it might be beyond repair now but I'd like to see the land re-used for the benefit of people again.
@GaryGSF Yeah alot of people would have been affected by the closure of the plant, unfortunately we can't change what has happened but hopefully one day we will learn to re-use and learn from our mistakes.
There is something sad yet calming about this video. I believe the sadness is a loss of what was and the calmness is the process of nature reclaiming it. Ashes to ashes dust to dust. Beautiful video! Annie:)
@evpinvestigations Thanks Annie, yeah I think the sadness is the direct effect on people by the closure but as you say nature reclaiming the place is beautiful at the same time. Beauty can appear at the darkest and most unexpected of places :)
yes, I had a wonderful Christmas and New Year. I'll love to be back in Scotland.
