The last to go was Kinglass House, shown here; compare Image The low building, left of centre, is the Cutty Sark Community Centre. The present picture was taken on a Friday. The site of the flats is visible from hills in the area, so I was able to follow developments here while exploring other areas: on the Monday morning following, a stump of this building remained, but there was only a mound of rubble here by Wednesday (28th).
