Home / Explores / Balrossie school destroyed by fire

When we started our YouTube channel the first location we filmed was Balrossie School in Kilmacolm, Scotland. Since then we have visited the building on a number of locations and seen a gradual decline in the condition of the building. The entire building had become unsafe and we had decided our most recent visit would be our last.

It was brought to our attention in early 2022 that the building has suffered a major fire. We decided to pay Balrossie one final visit to see what condition the building was in following the fire.

It is fair to say that Balrossie School has been destroyed by the fire. There are no floors remaining and all that remains are the main structural walls and steelwork. On this visit much of our filming was external. We did venture inside briefly but the building was too dangerous to proceed any further.

Without a doubt, this once-great building will soon be demolished…
