Truly fantastic pics!
A beautiful place, fabulously captured. It's like stepping back in time!

Love the bedroom shot, and that last shot is just eerily beautiful!

What can I say, I was dubious from the name at first but finally gave in to have a look and was glad I did. What a time warp, looks lik ethe place should be in a musium and not in a skip. Well don on documenting it.

What an incredible time capsule! And how fantastic that you were offered the chance to document it before it was too late. Your shots are really excellent

That really is a time capsule. Some proper museum type stuff there.

neat to see Marjorie next to the piece of store equipment and then see the actual piece of equipment still there.

 

[Lucky Pants]

Truly Inspiring

Awesome mate,this is exactly the kind of sets that make Derelict places such a great site!! When the thread said 'Hairdressers' I was not holding out much hope...How wrong was I!!!! This has to be one of the most surreal sets I have seen for a long time,I actually find the shots of the bedroom a little unsettling.This really is one of those rare finds that really do not come along too often and many thanks for sharing it.

Wow, thats incredible!

It always astounds me that places like this can sit for decades without being vandalised, and everyone around just carries on about their daily lives without a second thought about it! Excellent pics mate, thanks for sharing!
