Former Hyundai / Motorola factory
Now occupied by jackdaws, this plant was sold by Hyundai to Motorola in 2000. It is now lying idle, one more casualty of the demise of Silicon Glen.

Going, going...
The infamous Hyundai plant falls to the wreckers' hammers, nearly 15 years after it was first built, and after untold millions of pounds of publicly-funded investment, in the hopes of spearheading a new era in semiconductor manufacture. Sadly, recent plans seem to indicate that it will become yet another housing estate.

Hyundai - The Last Remains
The pile of rubble that is all that is left of the Hyundai/Motorola/Freescale semiconductor plant; the office block remained standing for some time after the manufacturing building was pulled down but now it too is gone.
