    Having seen some older reports on this place and being a sucker for old theatres, it’s one that has always been on my list.

    Hampole Manor, Doncaster - Visited April 2013

    This was one of my very first explores, visited with Urban Witness. The place is a proper derp and no doubt would have been a lovely home at one time. This place is so much of an unsecure place that we parked the car on the driveway outside and walked through the gate !! :o HISTORY There is...
