  • The Ruined Show continues, this time we head even further North to one of Scotland's most photographed ruin. While there we also take to water to explore a strange monument built in the middle of a loch.

    Dunalastair House didn't have it's roof removed on purpose to avoid anything, during the 1960s the lead was stolen from the roof, and back then it wasn't viable to repair it, and there wasn't any grants to apply for neither, so it was just left to rot.

  • @joonahautala8196
    @joonahautala8196 Před 7 dny +4

    many castles in Scotland and around are missing roofs, hence appearing to have burned down, due to some odd way of taxation back then.
    Bit like how they used to taxate you according to the amount of windows or chimneys your house had, so people started bricking up windows and combining chimneys into single offshoots, there was a tax loophole that you didn't have to pay taxes for a building if it didn't have a roof, so when these mansion owners went bust and couldn't keep paying taxes for their huge mansion, they took off the roofs and left the mansions like that to weather, maybe in hopes of coming back later in better times to rebuilt them.

    @K3nnyJK Před 21 dnem +8

    On the arson note, a lot of listed buildings in Scotland that can't get legally demolished end up being suspiciously torched in order to be allowed to be torn down. It's quite common honestly and incredibly sad.

    • @GS-lu2zu
      @GS-lu2zu Před 4 dny

      It's not just Scotland. It's well known throughout the whole of the UK.
      The same when devs buy old buildings to redevelop into fancy flats and they find asbestos and they have to pay out and remove it all legally.
      Funny enough, work stops, and some young local teens get paid off to torch the place a few weeks later.

    The house’s contents were sold in the mid fifties after the current owner’s grandmother’s death and the house was badly vandalised in the sixties when the lead was stolen from the roof. In those days it was not viable to repair it and no grants were available and it deteriorated very quickly from then on with most removable parts being stolen.

    Yes, that is a lookout tower back in the day. In case any enemies came to the territory, they can notify their camp wherever their camp was.
