Taxal Lodge - Photographic Report - 2018

#TaxelLodge Photographic Report - 11th March 2018 Built-in 1904 Taxal Lodge was once the home of Lt. Col. H. Ramsden Jodrell, Who passed away in 1950.
The home became a Special School, for disruptive and emotionally disturbed kids that lived on site 5 days a week. It replaced an older Taxal Lodge that originally stood further up the valley. 

Over the years there have been various reports of abuse within the school and a lot of visitors and students claim that the lodge is haunted. 
Once the plug was pulled by the authorities the school was closed in 2005. Since its closure, the lodge fell victim to vandals & arson.

Now other nature has now begun to stake her claim...

What a shame Taxal is close to ruin, seems some of the ceilings have collapsed in the last few years. A friend was quoted a million by the owner 3 years ago to buy it to renovate it, imagine a fiver may get it now! ?

It is nice that area mate, my mum lives round the corner, she alerted it to me many years ago. I became a little obsessed with it for a while!  I used to imagine sleeping overnight in it but never did!
