Collapsed by the face

[Wicked Dark]

This demolished building once housed a steam engine that drove the system of pulleys and cables that lifted the cut slabs off the granite face and moved them to transport down to shaping. I LOVED its angles and stance against the gentle hill it rested on. The slight distortion of the wide angle makes it seem even more tortured which is the vibe I got being near it.
