Brave, bold and bloodyminded

This is what's left of the Woodcroft Telephone Exchange, an example of public architecture in Scotland from the late 1950s. It's being demolished to make way for housing.

I'm enjoying Jonathan Meades current TV series on brutalist architecture, ("we don't expect paintings or novels or films to be pretty, reassuring, unthreatening; why should buildings be?"), but I wasn't exactly distressed to see the wreckers at work.

Any excuse for Miley Cyrus.....
