A shell of its former self. You can still see how beautiful it was.

I haven't seen anything this decayed since Bannerman's Arsenal.

Oh, Bannerman's Arsenal...also such a waste. I thought of that as well, Larry D.

Somewhat similar to Renwick in NYC, with its' robust exterior & collapsed interior. A most excellent find Mr. Motts!

The stonework on this building is quite impressive. Very well laid rough stone, and a huge amount of it. Lots of workers worked very hard to build that. Amazing how little value is placed on such structures.
