I Love Abandoned Places

Gartnavel Asylum

The building is called the East House, designed to house mentally ill poor people. The richer ones got housed in the West House which was more ornate.

West House is in use for administration now.

@TheJagsman at least they haven't been demolished which would be a travesty
