The estate sits just over half an hour from Glasgow city centre.

A 'derelict' housing estate just over 30 minutes from Glasgow, once home to shipyard workers, still has 20 residents.

A century later most of the 430 flats have been abandoned on the estate. It was once dubbed the cheapest place to live in Britain. when one property sold for £7,000 at auction. But according to an urban explorer, however, 20 people still live at Clune Park. Kyle Urbex, 26, felt uneasy as he explored the abandoned buildings and was in disbelief when he spotted people still living there.

"Outside of the flats, it is surprising to see people still going about their normal lives and going into houses next to the estate when 80 per cent of it is derelict. It is sad in a way to see what would have once been a thriving community, where everyone knew each other, all falling into itself in a derelict state."
