Had to go to France to sort something out & thought I'd combine it with a bit of poking around on someone else's
property. First Chateau (there are more to come)
This is the Chateau de Pont Remy in the Somme department burnt out on August 13th 2012.
Seems it was well known to the French URBEX community as either Chateau Clochard or Chateau Pianiste (there are bits of one still in the rubble). It was going to be restored but the fire saw that one off.
Now it sits & rots in it's own jungle like grounds.
Made my usual undignified entrance when after faffing around for 5 minutes when no cars or people were present I got stuck between two fences and had to pretend I was taking pictures of the multitude of cars which suddenly appeared
followed by the ubiquitous Old French woman...........
This place is very overgrown.
