Abandoned Scotland by Alastair Horne
Abandoned Scotland has stunning puctures of many different kinds of abandoned places, including castles, industrial sites, religious sites and military installations. The castles are the most beautiful but even some of the industrial sites are exquisite, such as the old railway stations and the Bass Rock Lighthouse, once used to hold religious prisoners. There are also old cottages and bothies, some on windswept islands. Some of the military installations have been taken back by nature,giving them an eerie beauty. The religious ruins are nearly always hautingly lovely, as well.
Some of these sites have been converted to a different use, such as accommodation. Staying at an old railway station converted into a hotel would be a charming way to spend a few nights.
These sites are definitely worth exploring on holidays to Scotland! Unfortunately, I would have to look at this book and dream about it, probably!
I received this free ebook from NetGalley in return for an honest review.
