In this collection of remarkable images, photographer Simon Sugden has
captured the beauty in buildings in their second life of decay and
dereliction. These buildings have become abandoned, no longer in use for
their original purpose, but the echoes of their former life, whether as
human habitation or workplaces, can be seen as the buildings gradually
decay. The buildings range from Yorkshire mills, farmhouses and
fairgrounds to religious buildings, asylums and factories. Some of these
buildings are returning to nature, others are little touched by the
changes, but all have a new kind of beauty. Look through these
photographs and you will quickly see the fascination of this unique
portrayal of the afterlife of these abandoned buildings around Britain.
