So literally 5 minutes away from me is the Saxon Cross Hotel. its just off J17 of the M6

For the last 2 years or so its been closed, i remember when i was younger going to many a wedding reception there.

This is currently how it stands:







The rest are in black and white:













Thats only the front too, didn't fancy going in much further on my own at sunset

Kurt get across to 28 days later, and post them up with a small report might be worth going back and getting some more photos.

This is about 2 mins from my house. Its epically scary at night! It wouldnt be so bad but theres still beds in some rooms whereas other rooms have been torched and other rooms have had the floors and ceilings ripped down for the copper pipes and wires. Gypsys decided to move there for a little while aswel.

Where it says "EL" in Kurts pic the "HOT" happen to be in my mates garage

Fuck going back at night, The name Saxon Cross comes from Anglo Saxons fighting Cavaliers there.. Suposedly ghosts wander the road

also I swear as I looked further in someone was peering
round the corner.. That's far too familiar to every horror movie I've seen

Not scared are you Kurt? Its a freaky place at night. We went into most of the rooms including the bar and the room at the top the highest one. The bar wasnt too bad but the room upstairs was untouched and full of paper and letters etc. Further round the back where all the rooms are some of them were perfectly preserved bed sheets and everything. Now that was scary

Indeed, otherwise just before the motorway turn right

I used to live in Crewe, so doing directions from there. Carry on down that road to the Bears Head for a nice meal
