So, after discovering a thread I convinced my camera club that Loudon would be worth a wee visit. We set off this evening to explore and take some photos.
Remarkably easy to get in, despite the big gate - it was just a matter of walking around the outside of the gate and then up to driveway to...
I've been working up in Newcastle and on the way back home I decided to stop and take a break
I've not seen this one posted for a couple of years but I've always fancied it so popped in :)
Leeds council don't fuck about
And finally the end
Visited this place back in Dec 2013
With West Park Hospital rapidly getting redeveloped this one is worth a few minutes if your passing.
Couple of professional pool tables still left inside, and considering it was left abandoned around 2007 I'm surprised it's not a total wreck.
Disturbingly a...

Ok so I thought my previous report was going to be my last but I thought why not put some old ones up to just continue contributing etc.
Visited last november on a very chilly night, within weeks of news it was to close.
Some history i found on the net..
THE INCEPTION OF TOXTETH PARK CEMETERY
The "Burial Board" of Toxteth Park initially purchased thirty acres of land, from The Earl of Sefton, at a cost of around £15.000, approximately £850.000 in todays money . William Gay of Bradford was charged with...
History off net.
Pool Park House was once owned by Sir Walter Bagot, a prominent Staffordshire barrister, and was rebuilt in in its current incarnation between 1826-1829 as a residence for the second Lord Bagot. After eventually being sold to the Tate family (of Tate & Lyle), it was...
High Park Street Reservoir was built in 1845, just South of the City of Liverpool to provide clean water, improve health and sanitation for the rapidly increasing population of the City. It is a solidly built, rectangular structure enclosing approximately 2600 sq.m., with a tower at one...
After today's main adventure I popped in to West Park, exactly 4 years and 3 months since my first visit in 2009.
I guess part of it was closure for me on the place that seriously got me into this big time, prior to my first visits to West Park in August 2009 I had visited Hellingly and Fullers...
Oh I do love Bletchley Park
Not many sites can claim to have changed the world and kick started the information age as we know it.
The history of the place changed the world as we know it and it's work during WW2 and the cold war were invaluable.
Currently there is work ongoing to help...
I was working in Ruthin and it would have been poor form not to drop in and visit the old girl
Pool Park has always been about that staircase and with good reason, it's stunning :mrgreen:
On with the pics
I had seen a couple of pics from the tunnels under the Mesnes park in Wigan and a newspaper article that they were due to be capped off, I was passing by so decided for a dinner time explore to see if I could locate them.

Absolutely loved this place, and had to get it done before it was totally gone. A nice relaxed mooch, well until I spotted the police from the very top of Knightmare!!
cue running!!!Explored with _Nyx_ and a great day was had.
Camelot Theme Park was a resort and theme park located in the...
I sorely miss this place, makes me sad looking through the photos. Much regret that I didn't find this hobby, now career of mine earlier, could of shot it all properly on a tripod and got some belter shots! Although, I wouldn't of had so much fun coming up through floorboards to avoid seccas...
West Park was a nice site, but every man and his dog knew about it and the same shots used to get taken time and again. Reaperman (of http://abandoned-britain.com/ ) and I decided to do a night visit at a time when the place was extremely popular, and use it more as an experimenting ground for...
The work to restore the other huts is well under way so you need to be a bit stealthy to get past the builders but once inside there are no issues
Considering the history of the site it's amazing to think that sections are still in a derelict state :(
I enjoyed my visit so much I walked in and...
Another installment of Englandshire road trip Scattergun and I embarked on. This Asylum wasn't even on our list until the night before when we are were deciding what to have a look at. A very quick muggle search and we the one shot made the decision for us. So off we set at 5am (needless to...
I know this place has been done loads but we had to do it. We had a amazing day surrounded by secca and builders and we some how managed not to get caught. I think this was the easiest splore ever for us!
