Been covered before and these days its looking a little sorry for itself, so many horrible people have trashed the main buildings but there are still some hidden treasures there ! :)

Little bit of history (if you don't know the place!) :
"Built 60 years ago, at its peak the site was home to 600 exiled Polish people. No wonder that to nearby locals it became known simply as Little Poland. Opened in September 1948 - this was one of 45 hostels across Britain set up to house the 200,000 exiled Poles who had fought alongside the Allies."

(Pic Heavy!)
