visited daresbury hall with @woopashoopaa and tom was a nice little explore the site had just recently been raided by police and they seized £750.000 worth of cannabis being grown in a outbuilding.there was still evidence of a previous airsoft company using the site.the main hall was pretty much intact with lots of previous owners stuff still left behind.the upper floors were rotting away quite bad in parts but was all still accesable so heres few pics and history....

Daresbury Hall is a former country house in the village of Daresbury, Cheshire, England. It was built in 1759 for George Heron.[1] The house is constructed in brown brick with stone dressings, and has a slate roof.[2] Its architectural style is Georgian.[1] The house is in three storeys and seven bays. It has a stone plinth and stone bands between the storeys. Framing the middle three bays are rusticated pilasters, and similar quoins at the corners. All the windows are sash windows. Along the top of the house is a plain parapet, with a pediment above the central three bays.[2] For some years from 1955 it was used by a charity, now known as Scope, as a residential home for handicapped people.[3] The house is designated by English Heritage as a Grade II* listed building.

It not too often you see this place pop up Lavino, but saying that hardly surprising when being used to cultivate weed in bulk lol.

That combined with ghost hunting, zombie nights and week end warriors makes for a fucked up mix

Cool share mate

I've been told it was the actual secca that were growing the weed. And also told they weren't even real secca just three local guy who took it upon them selves to be the security and grow it there haha.
