The Hope Methodist Church, Higham Ferrers, North Hants - Feb 15

[Landie_Man]

Built in 1902-3 by Northampton architect Thomas Dyer, the Hope Methodist Church is a striking landmark on Higham Ferrers' High Street. Marked out in East Northamptonshire Council's own Conservation Area Appraisal as a building of merit, the church, which is notable for its exuberantly Gothic west end, has a powerful presence in its historically significant surroundings.

The church has been abandoned since 2004 and has had a Demolition Grant on it since 2008.

I have tried to get in here on numerous occasions over the last year but finally found a suitable access point in a place I never of thought of looking!

I am aware of the noise, seems to be an issue I am having at the moment with equipment.
