As well as the standalone threads I am lumping a fair few of these places in together, usually due to not enough photos to do a proper thread on, so here is the first mixed bag...
Maison Boon
It was here we had our encounter with the mad as hell farmer who lives next door, he came in with a large wooden pole and threatened us with it whilst ranting and raving, and we came out to discover his wife or inbred sister cutting the valves off our tyres with a pair of bolt croppers, luckily she only got one properly deflated but was having a good go at another.
Places like this, although fantastic to look at aren't worth being killed over, so be careful out there in the sticks as I can honestly say I've never been so scared for my personal safety in my life.

Bowling Mill
Only in Belgium would there be a bowling alley with a fully functioning windmill built on top...

Villa Onder Ons
I got a bad feeling in this place, so didn't take nearly as many photos as I should have done. Pretty much as soon as I got in I got the feeling of wanting to get out again, and I have no idea why....

Chateau l'Ecole
Compared to the other places this is totally stripped but it was on the way back to our hotel so we popped in anyway. A chateau turned into a school at some point, there is another building on site that is currently being renovated so I guess this one is next. The scaffold out the front has gone up recently but it looks more to stop the frontage falling down than for work to start.

Chateau Rochendaal
This place is totally screwed, we only popped in to see the fantastic ceiling in one of the rooms and the staircase. I lost my Sigma lens cap in here so if anyone goes and finds it I'd be quite grateful....
