Eerie photos show what remains of a once-booming shopping centre built in 1996 and abandoned just eight years later in 2004.
Over 40 stores opened in the centre, which was thought to be the next new premier outlet for designer clothes and housed the likes of Versace, DKNY, Calvin Klein, Rockport and Levis.
The 50,000sq ft shopping centre also had two cafes, two restaurants and a Leisureland facility for children, with soft play, go-karts, an entertainment centre and much more. He said: “This scheme was 100 per cent let when it opened in 1996 and had four tremendous years. Then retail in Scotland became overpopulated in the central belt.”
