Failed in Irvine
An illustration of the decline of the electronics industry in Scotland, once hailed as the future industry to replace heavy engineering.  Today it has become something of a cottage industry with only a few pockets of resistance standing against the tide of everything moving east.   This particular factory in Irvine closed in 2005,  it was in slightly better condition when I worked there and has since been demolished.
