An abandoned estate dubbed 'Britain's Chernobyl' is set to be finally demolished - despite its final residents vowing not to move.

Derelict Clune Park has been virtually empty for years and pictures show it resembling something from a post-apocalyptic film.

Built in 1905 it is made up of 430 flats in rotting tenement buildings as well as a rundown church - all covered in graffiti and litter.

The estate in Port Glasgow was abandoned in 1997 and is now a ghost town with just a handful of residents chosing to remain.

It has also become a magnet for urban explorers.
