Down The Rabbit Hole- "Temple" - May 2017

Down The Rabbit Hole




Earlier this year I had booked a cabin in wales to get away for awhile, the gf came with me which left exploring somewhat off the radar, until on the way home that is
After dragging her to a few pins I had marked, a mansion, a few odd houses, it was now time to visit a place I had longed to see for a few years.
It recently was in the papers with some false information, or shall we say exaggerated information, not that anything I have is set in stone, but I believe it was built 150 years ago, some satanist or those of the occult have been down here aswel. some believe the "temple" linked to a manor or a church also, but this is also not confirmed, either way it certainly makes you think, how? when? and why?

The explore was a simple one, after getting muddy anyway, I had always believed inside to be larger than it seems, but its all rather closed in and very short lived, after lighting the place up you notice its rather small, but the pillars and engravings are rather interesting. Nothing really interesting inside no animal bones, no black robes, a few used tea lights and a bat though. After getting a few more shots it was time to climb out that pesky rabbit hole and head home...

Anyway on with the shots!






























Thanks for looking everyone more soon! ​

Small but fascinating!
Could have been something to do with the Hellfire Club or a similar type of group.

You haven't been reading my mind have you MB??? You know you will only get a shed full of hurt, confusion and self loathing...plus the constant dilemma chicken and mushroom pot noodle or pizza, yeah I'm living the dream.
I say this as I was just about to put up my pics from here...spooky, it must be satanic.

Well I do like your torch lit version! Very nicely done MB. It does your back in after a while in there though doesn't it lol I agree with all your comments on the history! Its a lovely little grotto, not quite as old as some would like, but nevertheless still enjoyable to photograph, which you have made a lovely job of
