A castle in Wales

Noticed when waiting for sunset a couple of years ago. Couldn't get interior shots as the floors weren't safe. No idea who built it or if they knew that woody nightshade isn't good stuff for kids.

A WW2 Stanton shelter in the Grovely Woods near to Wilton, Wiltshire

Nearby farm (Oakley Farm) served as an RAF Ordnance Depot during WW2 and Grovely Wood was used by the US Air Force as an ammunition depot. Grovely Wood was seemingly chosen for this purpose due to its proximity to main line rail stations such as Wylie. Apparently, bombs and shells were left stacked out in the open in the woods, and the less robust munitions (e.g. fuses) were stored in hundreds of small huts that were dotted around the wood.

Former HSBC Building in Sheffield. Passed it today and the site is now totally cleared - most likely for more flats. Surprised no one got round here and did a report on it before it was demo'ed:
