Been a very long time since i posted an explore so here goes 
This is my former high school Little Moss which i graduated from in 2007. It was built some time between 1948 and 1954 and merged with the local Girl school Monar Road in 2009 to become Droylsden academy. It was used to teach years 7 & 8 whilst Monar Road taught years 9 to 11. This was while the new school was being built next to the Monar road site. In December last year the new school opened and the two old schools closed down. Monar road was quickly demolished, Little Moss however wasn't. It still stands today, this could be because the building is completely riddled with asbestos. Warning signs plastered all of the windows. So with the aid of professional dust masks we decided to go and have a gander at our old secondary.
Google maps -
The Technology, Maths and Art blocks where all very securely locked up, but we were able to get into the main building quite easily, as we found a door that wasn't locked. The building has been completely stripped of almost all furniture. It looks like they are now trying to figure out what to do about the asbestos. The site has a van parked out front, but it hadn't moved once in the four days that we visited the building. so I guess its just there as a deterrent. the site does have some security but they are completely useless. so we were able to gain entry on countless occasions without any problems
A gate to the rear of the main pitch, gave it a jiggle but it didn't open, might need a drop of wd40 -
The rear play ground, this brings back so much memories it is unbelievable -
Close up of the main building -
The Science Section
Room number 1 -
Room 2 -
This room was my year 11 science room, but it was also the room of my great teacher Mr Hilton, who was tragically killed in the Alps. He was the best teacher ever and is greatly missed.
A tribute to Mr Hilton, His team
Room 4, 3 was too dark -
I think the builders might have used a little force on this door -
Corridor of science section -
Science section meeting room -
Nice art -
No idea -
The place is in pretty decent condition considering it closed almost a year ago, but there are still signs of damage-
This is could be a main reason as to why it is still standing. They can only start demolition work once it has all been removed -
The Top Floor
The corridor that runs the length of the building. remember running down this so many times being late for lessons -
One of the English rooms -
another English room -
The main corridor again -
Yet another English room, forgot what number they all are -
Another violently forced door though -
You can tell how old the place is by some of the original plug sockets -
Back down stairs
The way to the media section, the roof is leaking badly in this section-
The doors had been forced again -
The Library -
old stool -
Some old paper, probs actually me that did this lol -
The Music practice room, still annoyed at the fact our music tutor buggered and left us to fail our music course
Practice room 2 -
]
No drum lessons when I was there -
Some old work -
A piano left behind, still works apart from a few keys -
The server room, had to make camp in here as a police helicopter kept circling over head, and us running around in an abandoned school would look a little suspicious. Especially with Dail Kreegen still at large in the area -
Little -
To the Hall and Gym
The Hall side doors, we had to have a gander around the garden as we were never aloud in it as students -
The Science rooms -
More garden -
The P.E Block -
To the changing rooms, in a right sorry state as the skylights had been destroyed -
Smashed in skylights, clearly the local chavs have attempted, and failed to get in -
Wet little mossy floor -
Little blurry
P.E office -
Some junk left in the P.E Block store
MY BALLS!!! -
A painted over window -
The P.E block bogs, amazingly these still flush. I think it is because they get their water from a tank on the roof, and frankly it was pissing it down -
The showers -
hated these things, never warm..
The gym store room -
Amazing what i found at the back of it, still got a certificate somewhere for lobbing one of these across the pitch, they seem heavier now than they did back then for some reason -
The gym lesson board date-
The main gym, so much fun i had in here, like falling down that hole in the middle lol -
An old thing, looks like it used to be a control for an old loud speaker system, plastered over when i studied at the place -
Close up -
Couldn't resist but see if the old equipment still worked
Had a right good climb about on it, I actually turned back to teenager in here, good times-
Bit of creative photography -
Time to head back to the main building as it was starting to get dark -
The door linking the P.E block to the end of the hall -
The old stage lighting plugs, the lights were long gone in my time, so no idea why they left these -
Starting to get dark by this point -
An interesting file i found in the caretakers room -
A map of the schools water tanks and things -
You better do what it says -
Some old graffiti, LMS - Little Moss School-
Very weird logo on a van that was parked in the schools grounds -
And a very large interesting find. This is a huge servery map of the building -
#
Went for a wonder on my own, very creepy at night, there is nothing quieter than an abandoned school -
The old girl will be coming down soon. used to hate it when i was studying there but, I met my friends and I started my band with them. I had some very fun times aswell, getting up to nogood, and being told off by my teachers. So I am really going to miss seeing the place from the bus or when I walk down the canal which runs along the side of the rugby pitch. But i suppose a building riddled with asbestos was always going to be closed and demolished, just only a matter of time. It still stands today but it will not be long before the bulldozers move in for the kill...
