It has an annual Art Festival which we usually attend. While there last year I came upon this Art Deco/Moderne building, acting as one of the venues. Whatever it’s certainly 1930s.
View from behind. A garage is to the left here:-
The garage:-
Pittenweem Primary School is not quite Art Deco, being erected in 1912, but has some prefigurative elements:-
Kyle of Lochalsh is a village situated at the mouth of Loch Alsh, ten or so miles from Dornie and Eilean Donan Castle.
It is perhaps most famous for being the terminus of the Kyle of Lochalsh Railway line, which nominally runs from Dingwall but the trains go on to Inverness.
Kyle of Lochalsh Railway Station:-
The Station is effectively on the pier. Handy for goods traffic:-
Part of railway line:-
Signal Box, Kyle of Lochalsh, taken from same bridge as above:-
The village is quite small but as I recall represented the big bad wider world of fleshpots and the like for the inhabitants of the Applecross peninsula in His Bloody Project
The most impressive building in Lochalsh is the Lochalsh Hotel which has minor Art Deco leanings:-
Only a mile (or less) away is the Skye Bridge. (No need now to take a boat – bonny or otherwise – over the sea to Skye.) Skye hills in background:-
In the village there is a memorial in the form of a defused mine:-
I’ve also found a video of the abandoned interior with one external shot at the end. It seems the video’s makers had no authorisation to enter the premises:-
Not the sort of thing you really expect to come across on rounding a corner in rural Scotland. An Art Deco/Modernist Power Station.
Tongland Power Station, part of the Galloway hydro-electric power scheme, is in Dumfries and Galloway on the A711 between Castle Douglas and Kirkcudbright.

Vehicle entrance gates:-
Detached building and what looks like a huge water tank:-
Dumfries’s Burton’s is typically Art Deco in style. Unusually for a Burton’s, though, it is built in red sandstone rather than having the usual white stone covering.
Front aspect:-
Upper detailing. Logo and motto, “Montague BURTON the Tailor of Taste”:-
Side view:-
Again the upper portion has a Burton’s logo and motto:-
