Dilapidated Beauty


This iconic image shows the Old Britannia Copper Mine, now the BC Museum of Mining. Since this photo was taken, the museum has been refurbished to exemplify a neat and modern building in the mountain. Before it was rebuilt, this was a location for Scooby Doo (2002) in the old monster-making factory, and more than 50 other big films.

Ruins of Ages Past


This grey and grainy image depicts Bamburgh Castle, built on a beach in Northumberland, England. The location was previously home to a fort of the native Britons known as Din Guarie and may have been the capital of the British kingdom of the region. The castle has a rich and fascinating history which can be explored extensively.
