Think this is the correct section to share this one, not that there's much to share. The site is huge but the main building is sealed tight and being watched like a hawk with the most technical cameras I have ever seen.
Here's what I did get anyway, not much but still!
Found some photos of this place after it had been restored, they had a open day and I with a mate went along, although this place isn't abandoned, just wanted to show what a stunning place this is, so hope this is ok.
Bit of history:-
The grange was the home of augustus pugin the victorian...
Might as well stick these up. Leybourne grange is a shadow of it's former self, actually to be blunt it's f**ked. There's still however a few bits and pieces to be seen. The Manor house is in a much worse state than I thought, and I think it's days are numbered, as with the rest of the complex...

Visited with 12 gauge very rare opportunity to see this place as its always pretty well sealed up well worth the pain lol
im not to sure on the history apart from this was the original building on the site built many years ago when the place was a big estate
its a real shame how bad this place...
Visited this place last year with my daughter Miss CSI, we borrowed a car and off we went, had a lot of fun dodging security and diving in bushes, I believe this place has been demolished or it's on it's way. On with the pics.
