“The lorries thunder through mile upon mile of farmland, indeed, but... it is obviously related to an urban economy... Dereliction is the word...

It is impossible to traverse such communities without seeing that something rather horrible once happened to Scotland, something from which it has never recovered.”
― George Blake, The Heart of Scotland
