My first report here, lockdown and isolating got in the way of exploring....

After some research around empty properties/vacant sites in Fife I stumbled upon The Priory Campus/Halls of residence. Done a bit of research on them and could see they had been vacant since around 2016 - There are two buildings I explored on this recce visit - The Priory House itself (A 'B' listed building) and the Round house.

The Priory House - Broken glass is everywhere, its obviously been used repeatedly as a hangout for the local kids, however it was a lovely little place to walk round (A sturdy staircase to the upper level was appreciated). Above the stairwell is evidence of a stained glass circular window, absolutely destroyed/smashed unfortunately. Not much remains inside, however most doors still have the ROOM ID on the front.

The Round House itself was a student accommodation block, the copper collectors have obviously been out in force as there are wires everywhere - Multiple fires have removed the second floor roof, again there is very little 'left' from the time it was in use - Surprisingly baths are still to be found in tact, as well as toilets.

I am, hopefully, returning next week with my full camera kit and headtorch (As well as heavy boots) to do a far more detailed explore/report. For now a small selection of images I captured on this recce visit -

And finally you can see the rather unique airflow idea for this property that the little 'darlings' created when the upper floors were set ablaze:

What's the current state of the large former mill that was used as another campus building just down from the roundhouse? These two were locked up very tight when I went in 2017 but surprisingly the mill building was accessible.

Saw on the map there was something connected just down from it. Checked google street view and I was unsure if it was occupied or not, will wander down to have a look next weekend

Looking at Google maps it appears its been reopened as an art school type deal so chances are it's no longer a doable thing.
