My housemate spotted a house partially demolished on the way back from Uni. so we got home grabbed our gear and set off back towards the house.

There wasnt much left of the house so we had a look around the site that was fenced off.

To my supprise there was a small secluded garage so I thought Id check it out. leading through the garage I came to another door which open onto a courtyard.

it was pretty vandelised but I had a look around and a door into an old shop was open.

Below are 4 of my favourites may post more:








and my favourite from the session:



edit: added some more

Cheers mate!

I've been driving passed this place for the last 8 months. Was pretty smashed up inside, chavs must of got in. Was pretty intimidating as it was quiet, but well worth it.

There was some ghost hunting thread from ages ago about 30 pages long, or an abandoned place. Was in Off Day, had a lot of pictures like this.

Vague description i know, but can't remember too much.

that pic looks lovely

There are so many places to explore round by me, there is an old stately home which unfortunately got burnt down by yobs, old castles, mental hospitals, factories etc
