Once abandoned, since refurbished. The Midland hotel was built in Morecambe, Lancashire in 1933. Built by London midland and Scottish railway who were looking to profit from the boom in seaside holidays among the wealthy middle classes. Notable features included the central staircase and numerous murals and paintings and when it opened it was hailed as a vision of modernism and thought by many to be the most beautiful contemporary building in Britain.
