    Default a unique 'then and now'

    Granton house, not my pictures, found these on the buildings at risk register for scotland as i'm planning a trip up there again next month and want to go have a snoop around some dereliction.

    I love this then and now comparison as the yellow van is still in the picture 10 years on!

    How strange that none of it, especially the yellow van, has been torched
