NS8451 : The Hangar, Carluke
near to Carluke, South Lanarkshire, Great Britain

The Hangar, Carluke
This building had recently been vacated by a double-glazing firm and the site was bought by a developer. A supermarket chain unsuccessfully applied to build on the site, but the developer has subsequently decided to demolish the hangar as it had become the target of vandals. Few would have suspected that the double glazing factory had been a wartime hangar, which was used to store downed planes during the second World War. The only propellers now visible at the site are those of the Black Law windfarm in the background.
