Demolition of Argyll Hotel - (1)

After years of planning delays, the derelict Argyll Hotel is no more. Much of the demolition work was completed during the wet and windy last days of 2011, with the site now being cleared. It is uncertain when work on the new hotel will start. See: NM8530 : Argyll Hotel, Oban
