A Scottish person and get that one get St Scotland [Applause] all welcome back to the channel guys and girls today we’re in abandoned shoing Village the fre the fre Port shopping center Westwood so basically I’ve had to park my vehicle about 3 Mile Away in Blackburn and bike here it is out in the middle of anywhere they were in the
Place went shot the roads are crap as well it’s all bumpy roads to get here basically this place opened up I think it was 1996 so five sister fre Port Sho Village in West L had more than 40 stores and was a premier outlet for designer clothes when it opened in
1986 so there’s a picture there on The Daily Record with hang me an abandoned Scot Scot shopping center which had been left to off for over 20 years has been dubbed a ghost town the Five Sisters fre Port sh Village in West loing had more than 40 stores I was a premier designer
Clos when 1996 and it first year the 50,000 Square ft attraction attracted more than a million visitors as reported Ed alive SC a bit so say sit off the motorway they make Motorway between Ed and Glasgow I could easily reach from Scotland’s biggest two cities but it’s
Not that easy it’s the middle of anywhere there’s no par b or none of it also the Las line facility with soft play Gokarts entertainment center uh R full down after opening the B at free Port leer wanted to extend the premises and a plan application was
Submitted to West Ling coun for 18 million top grade it could have featured ski slopes Togan runs snowboarding and children Winter Wonderland so keep scrolling down we opened in 2000 a new living the new Livingston designer Outlet had a big impact on its retail and customers began to turn away from Freeport
Uh B scroll down and it says here BBC used in 2015 for a movie so on the screen I survived a zombie apocalypse that was filmed here and I was have read a bit back in Google saying that basically when they the film on here they kind of
Damaged the place we bit we not know that to put the joone up obviously I’m not checking for jobs in this place even though it’s got security this is an interesting place not an audit but I can’t hear Machinery in the background so I don’t know if it’s for here or over
There but we’re going to tell put the Drone up cuz the gates are open they say danger guard dogs it’s good thing I’m pet friendly so we got the security H here see a sub contractor or all you can see the start of the village there got smash
Windows it’s a welcome to sign over there there’s a lot of construction on here help you how you doing what’s happened here not in the village do no what’s happened there there b houses or something is reopening no no all right B I make a video interesting places this an
Abandoned oh go I’m just going to fly a j to fly it an operator I Squad I’ve got that eye and insurance all that stuff but basically is clear so is it is it all intact has it been doed in at all no it’s all intact so there the problem is
There was a guy here before we had run in the PO he one of the guys reported that cuz this is a sow like it’s private really not it’s don’t though we’re going to be filming nothing I mean we going to be filming it’s a film set all right
Gold when’s that happening they know now all right you what it’s about no no a film a program that follow mine oh F cool we hanging the no yet so say actually b or just started it they just started the building so they say there I I’m saying the for supp it’s all
Clear this isn’t the first place I turn up I turn up loads of places was clear if was ad they’ve got a woman’s prison think you can fly there Men’s prison is a Men’s prison well there’s red there there’s a radius how close you can go say assist totally clear I check all
That first so basically any turn up there’s nothing they can do know what I mean h so how far down it go is it quite big or is it quite small this place is it a bit the one you ever been to Greater similars me based on it’s based on great
Is it I can remember this this was the Scottish version one St Scotland all English that way it looks quite good so I’ll do it there I’ll go take off P right and just we fly only 5 minutes so just basically letting you know right right cheers
P well I don’t know if that was scared off that takes to basically say the PO came and took some away last time but I will check joone assist again I did check it when I past I stopped to run the corner and check my assist it was all
Clear so we’ll get there and it also says a film set there so keep an eye on that last one for the Future come back we Noy so we’ll get Cho up there and we’ll check Jo assist we’re well away for the Red Zone but the security guard was try
I say we can fly here so a screenshot of that and we get Chopper up before we get ANL distraction I’m going to see abandoned sh Villages like and AO other film set as well so I’ll just move over a bit so I can get a bit line of seight so there’s
Your sh Village here is all abandoned let’s go no they Bing over here fact we’ll try to show first that’s here for first and we then we’ll come back so look I can remember this opened it was meant to be the the best design out place to come obviously living is
Only like 5 minutes through the corner so it’s totally kill the business as it said in D so we’ll fly up this way first and we’ll turn back ourselves we I keep flying so all just kind looks all boed up so is kind of like the gr Greta but as the guy said
This is a Scottish one even though gret is in Scotland but I came me so there was 40 shops that were even planning expanding it chopp over the trees just in case anybody does turn up they go where’s your drawing they can’t see them going
To go a little bit higher just to keep them in view I’m going to have to go that side the road I make sure I’m keep myself sale right so fway down here now I’m not watching the Drone I’m not watching the screens that might by we all over the place done
There some attention at the gates now they’re working lot them down not sure they’re going to come over right so I need to go little bit higher cuz these bloody trees walk across so I’m keep my line of sight so the footage is a we bit over
The place it’s CU I’m watching the drawn cuz there do gray clouds at the background it’s kind of block my view so as you can see we can only see bloody Rifts Try low get lite total ghost what a waste of bounds total waste so this we get the shopping center and one view then we’ll fly over the film set and if anybody knows what the film sets for please put in the comments cuz I want keep keep an eye on
So as we try this in the wind shop set on the Wind view look at that what a waste that’s been shot for over 20 years 23 years that’s been shot what an absolute waste don’t be ly I’m going to actually show you a surroundings so look what it is nothing
In the middle of anywhere that’s West C over there there NOS if it’s a straight road and there a we crappy country road to get here that’s your Five Sisters there’s a zoo there somewhere and black but it’s over there over there that’s where I’m my way parted over
There to bik it for there I’m absolutely kner so I’m going to bring Chopper back down towards the gate then we’ll go the film set so I keep L sight so a better view so bit higher than a bit lower we going check the for set so I don’t really know what they’re
B it looks like in of houses they we’ll fly for the tree side so we can look back on it so we’ll fly out and then we’ll fly in I’d love to know with the D and I’ll be back I will be back if I can
Find it when they’re filming cuz as I saying they don’t know in the air photography is not a crime so imagine they’re probably doing some sort of kind of zombie thing again maybe a season two for that other thing cuz obviously use that as the abandoned bit cuz it’s totally wasted
Why not use that for an abandoned bit of film so I take going and see what he’s do I’d love to know what what they building it for so imagine they kind of houses then they’ll use that they’re not going to build their houses they they use that in the background so it’s
Definitely got to be something kind an abandoned zombie so we bring them back to know high so just a fly around again folks staring staring there on the vehicle wonder if he’s going to come up to us there’s a phone in come a l is he coming to his is
He he’s try get some attention so we’ll fly back over the shopping center I think we’re bugging them so so fire in the Sho Center got B higher so there’s your film set again we’ll bring Chopper back down this again the guy didn’t have his badge I
Didn’t pull pull him up on it but the thing is I’m here to get the footage and I say I’m still leing the Drone Lo myself I they studed them so I’d be shocked if I get caught out but I don’t always trust drone assist but I’ve
Been tell drone assist is basically the Bible for drone flying it updates all the time it’s not that as well I couldn’t fly my DJI app wouldn’t allow me to fly you other cheaper drones and that stuff and they can or you can other software but I use a DJI software so
That keeps me right so I’ll just get up there we bit more just to get some more footage see if I can walk Little D so please please please if anybody can find this sh would be great I really want to know what this is cuz obviously don’t want folks seeing It but unlucky for the on YouTube try and get the welcome to a sign I was trying to get a photo but then the guy came and spoke to me so over there that that says welcome to then the bits blood out so I’ll try and bit lower that obviously your entrance there
Take get a bit B no us to the car park so I’ll bring them back down now got enough footage That’s scary buddy good boy Chopper so for the chopp ring in this one I’m going to put it there a box over here me it is a bit dirty to get to it so I’m going to put it in this box so it’s sitting in this box just in
There so if you want that especially when I show the middle of neighbor somewhere near West CA so I started to chopp ring before I went back in because I didn’t want them see mustach it I just going double check the P have in front want see this
Guy all right P the phone please come here oh no I’m coming to double check me hey the police any find the police no all right no I just double check CU I’m for them me de all right so basically done much St you see that old B know
What I mean but it was it was just quite interesting an abandoned Village do you know why it was abandoned no just new business is actually left to go I that Designer I think got store of the business that was actually fell apart after that ah so
It’s just like five sister Z on it it’s units right it’s c b to be Wast I mean thought we be alleys stuff AB but I think it’s just a location it’s the middle of NE ex as much as it says online it’s it’s greatly placed between glasgo and Edinburgh it’s not actually
Easy to get no was that was reason why as well was as well H that was well planned when they B it that road I think the road was better than is now but the road’s not the best obviously a year ago Road was mean our main our main road but anyway right
Cheers pway all right see you later to be fair to security it was all right so if you like that video guys hit a like button and if you didn’t know what that sets for please let me know cuz I’ll be back you not subscribed sub

Nice one bro.. Great views and fine interaction with the security guard ….down to earth etc. ..You need to make a wee cameo appearance with Chopper in the west Lothian gala day season .. enjoying your channel…
.
Freeport not seen and been in a long long time.😮❤
A mind going there one summer and it was pretty good but aye Livi outlet killed it. The prices were better in Livi and it was a damn sight easier to get to for sure. Love that Freeport was used for a zombie movie and maybe another one coming. Great to see you and chopper out and about. Getting closer to ma hoose all the time, I'll make sure I got the kettle ready for you if you do.
A never knew that place was there and I’ve been to the zoo there. It looks very similar to Gretna outlet but seems a bit of a waste sitting there rotten away. Great content as usual DAS 👍
I remember reading about that place in the Record. I'd never heard of the place before, so it seems they didn't do much advertising so no surprise it closed. It looks like it would have been a good place to shop. Another good one from you and wee chopper 🙂
Looks like a kind of modern set they are building, might be part of that movie Damaged
Nice footage…. interesting!!
Never knew about this place…it's a shame it's been left to get to this state…🙁… hopefully it will get used for more filming in the future… great video again 👍🙂. I was asked to go and do a bit drone footage today of Crosshouse Waverley..the local amateur football team…10 mins before I was about to leave the rain came peeing down 🤬🤬.. try again in a fortnight….👍🙂🏴
Scotland talks way different than the Australia people 🇦🇺 I love the Scotland 🏴 ❤people mate.
interesting to not that there is a Boeing 747 Jumbo Jet Cockpit section in the middle of the screen at 6:20. The street looks amazingly like the Sherwood Crescent architecture in Lockerbie
Crazyyyyy all that just abandoned
They are making a film about the Lockerbie plane crash. Hence the cockpit in the car park.
