Fire Damaged care home
January 2014

Located in Harrow, this was once a council run home for adults with mental health problems. It was derelict for 6 years before suffering a
fire in February 2012. 15 suspected squatters were seen fleeing from the fire by a police officer, it was not treated as suspicious. It took
30 fire firefighters (6 engines) 3 and a half hours to get the fire under control.
Obviously with the fire damage I didn't get too comfortable especially, as you'll see in my second photo, the 3rd story floor had fallen through
completely on one side of the home.

This one single roof tile really made me giggle

Watch your step.. ​

That certainly is fire damaged!

What a blaze that fire must have been! Some good shots there too

 

[MrDan]

I was constantly conscious of the fire damage, normally.. even in the biggest derps I can feel comfortable and at home.
Still doesn't beat Twyford Abbey though!

Blimey, looks like there are plenty of very quick ways to get from the top floor to the ground floor
Great photos, looks such a sketchy structure now!

 

[MrDan]
