The remains of Lennox Castle on the outskirts of Glasgow. Designed by David Hamilton in the syle of a Norman castle, it was built in the 1830s. Between 1927 and 2002, it was used as a hospital before being abandoned. It was destroyed by a fire in 2008.

This is a common story for former NHS buildings around Glasgow (I know of at least six similar examples), and you have to wonder how many tens of millions of pounds have been lost by this approach, which seems to have started in the 1990s, of simply abandoning old hospital buildings once they were no longer being used.
