More resent than your guess. There is an article on Friday 11 July 1986 in the Wishaw Press, about the imminent demolition.

Quote
The death knell first sounded for the single-storey premises when Motherwell District Council served a dangerous building warrant in May calling on the Regional Council as owners to make the structure safe or pull it down.

Strathclyde were given 28 days – now expired – to comply with the notice.
