The day they were demolished - 9 photos of colleges and school buildings being bulldozed
Some have been replaced by brand new buildings while others are confined to our memories.
We have reminders of demolition day at these well-known places. Did you go to classes at the former Brinkburn School? How about Springfield Comprehensive?
Who remembers the day that demolition crews moved in to the old Laygate Junior School in 1972?
Here are 9 reminders.
