Lennox castle on fire

More than 30 firefighters and 13 appliances tackled a blaze a week ago at the historic Lennox Castle in East Dunbartonshire, Scotland. The fire was extinguished after approximately two hours, and the structure, which has stood since the mid 1800s, apparently can be saved. Photo courtesy of ClanUrbex.

  1. ClanUbex wants to thank you for your imnput and choosing this photo, we have a number of A listed buildings in Scotland (the highest level of protection) developer’s don’t want to spend money on them, it is cheaper to clear the sight……………..Strathclyde Fire Brigade did everthing they could to save the sight…….and it was a dangerous building before they got there:)

    A huge thank you to the boys and girls for Strathclyde Fire Brigade…………………..they had to pump water up from a pond…through 5 tenders:)

    I thank you……………..Scotland thanks you, for saving a historic sight:)
