Snow Hill 3, Birmingham - August 2019
Visited twice first with 2 non-members and then with @scrappy.
Snow Hill 3 is the last of 3 glass towers sitting side by side to be constructed next to Snow Hill Station in Birmingham. This one is to house BT's new call centre amongst other smaller...
We had no idea how we would get on here. After driving through the night and arriving in the early hours, our entry was just awful! As we sat in the freezing cold, and the light started to appear at the windows, we could see it was worth the effort. Visited with @SpiderMonkey, obvs!

A cool night of climbing in Sheff with @-Raz- and a none member Butters

Bit of History;
The Cathedral Church of St Marie is the Roman Catholic cathedral in Sheffield, England. It lies in a slightly hidden location, just off the main shopping...
The Visit
Another one that has probably been covered many times on the forum but again as I'm new over here I thought its one of those that's always quite nice to see.
Pretty standard explore really, nice and relaxed and no bother from the locals which is always nice :)
The History
High...
Hello all,
Recently realised i never did anything with my High Royds Photos.
You all know the history so i wont bore you with that... Heres how it all played out;
How I got a restraining order from a building...
Cast your mind back to February... 2 years since the last report on High Royds...
Much like my post on Grossinger's Resort from my first trip over, this is going to be quite text and photo heavy as it's one of those places which I had wanted to see for so long, and which really piqued my interest.
Horace Mann High School in Gary, Indiana is the city's largest derelict school...
Ok wanted to see this for a while so at 2 am decided to go look. Visited with acid reflux even though he stayed in car has he was shattered and stranton.

Ok work is well on way here with lots of the building ripped up and several outside buildings now rubble. But most was still here...
Here is a nice one for you to enjoy.

Visited with The_Raw, ExtremeIroning, Raz and Jamie_P
Setting the scene;
5 people, 1 206, a huge squash.
After exiting my clown car which was clearly not designed for more than 3 people (French so i guess i expect too much) we jumped the wall, shimmied the scaff, over a fence and we were...
Massive thanks to The_Raw and ExtremeIroning for showing us this one!! Well worth the 4 hour drive from T'old Yorkshire to the big city!
Explored with Raz, Jamie, Damo and Michael the night before the Kent Meet up.
From what I can gather Angel Court is a 70's design high rise office block...
Please be aware most of what you will see below has now been demolished

As always a bit of background;
Castle Market is a former indoor market in Sheffield city centre, England. The building lies in the north east of the present city centre, by the...
Arriving in the centre of Belval in Luxembourg, one can not help but look up at the huge blast furnaces which dominate the skyline. Ultra-modern high-rises and new-builds butted up against these giants are dwarfed. Looking at the building site at the base, we glance at each other.... "We NEED to...
sooo i went to london last weekend and flashed a skyscraper, first time for everything, me and the gherkin compared gherkins, needless to say the gherkins gherkin was massive so i put my clothes back on, and sheepishly went back to my bottle of sailor jerrys. My excuse is it was bloody cold and...
Finally got back to see the parts that i missed. Visited this time with Paul 2129 off 28DL. Managed to have a good look around on this occasion and covered all we wanted to see. Really glad i got back for another look, there is some awesome stuff to see in here. The corridors look spooky as hell...

The hospital is located within in the City of Leeds metropolitan borough and was first opened on 8 October 1888 as the West Riding...
Visited this place in February with Urblex. An unexpected mooch that was cut savagely short by the arrival of the police. Looking at the times on my photographs i'd say we where in there for about 15 mins. Oh well, at least we got out and away without incident. Nice looking place what we seen of...
Wish i went here a long time ago, would of been great to seen it all!.
High Royds hospital is a now-closed psychiatric hospital in the village of Menston, Bradford, West Yorkshire, England. It was first opened on 8 October 1888, as the West Riding Pauper Lunatic Asylum, and was closed on 25...
This post is a bit late but only just got round to editing the pictures so my apologies. We decided to take a trip in February to High Royd which didn't have a good ending. The day started off well, we managed to get inside fairly easily. We had a good look round downstairs but didn't get to see...
In the heart of Essex this little school has gone unnoticed for some time. Done some research on it and found out that it is to be converted in to 11 luxury apartments. It opened in the early 1900's served as a school for some time before closing a while ago. It still has a lot of character. I...
