Old Buildings

I am a lot more interested in buildings that are old and especially buildings that are nearly falling to pieces. I would love to bring one back to life. Here are some I like:



The Scottish Historic Buildings Trust (SHBT) is working with building owners Lord MacLennan and Mr Tony Hagon and potential End User the Royal Scottish Academy of Music and Drama to undertake anOptions Appraisal for the Girnal at Ham and Barrock Church, both in Caithness. The Girnal is a former Grain Store and is "B" Listed, and is located within the boundary of Ham Farm south of Dunnet Head, however is disused and in derelict condition. Barrock Church is "B" Listed and is located approximately one mile south of the Ham.
