EERIE images show a "ghost town" – a housing estate lying empty after building work stopped over a decade ago.<\/p>\n

The group of sixteen homes once worth around \u00a3300K mostly lie abandoned after work began in 2007 – then came to a halt.<\/p>\n

The properties at Woolmill Place in the town of Sorn in East Ayrshire in Scotland are being taken over by nature.<\/p>\n

Video from the inside shows the houses half painted and plastered, with unfitted toilets and baths tossed aside in different rooms.<\/p>\n

The few residents who moved in say over a decade after the project began they are still "outraged" that it was never completed.<\/p>\n

The site was originally built by a building company which went bust following the 2007 credit crunch.<\/p>\n

Following its bankruptcy the site was bought by a construction firm for \u00a32million.<\/p>\n

Local residents say the company have done nothing since – leaving the homes now slowly falling apart with derelict interiors.<\/p>\n

One woman who lives in one of the homes said: "Nothing has been done for years.<\/p>\n

"We were promised that it would be a great community.<\/p>\n
