The Dereliction of HMSO, Botolph Street, Norwich - 26th May 2013

Built in the 60s in a classic concrete brutalist style, Her Majesty's Stationary Office in Sovereign House on Botolph Street was all set to be the Future, but within 30 years its staff were being made redundant as the service was privatised. The building was closed and has remained unoccupied since, becoming for many an eyesore. However, it does have some epic graffiti around the base of the building, as well as nearby on New Botolph Street.
