Last report from myself and Stufish's day out and even though this place has had other names in the past, we decided to name it as a nod to Mookster.
This was due to some intel he gave us being the initial reason for our trip to the area.....cheers Mookster, hope to visit the other place soon and hopefully when the hounds are not on the move
We didn't plan to do this place but on finding access was wide open and only 10 cars in the car park we thought 'why not?'.....You could say the fact it was once busted for alleged Terrorism training and was obviously partially in use would be reason for the 'not' part of my earlier question but fortune favours the brave and all that right?
So, in we go, straight to the top floor and it didn't disappoint, some stunning rooms and architecture in a building that obviously dates back to long forgotten times. We then worked our way down and found the best corridor I have seen to date, it stretched for an age with the blue and white paint divide appearing beautifully symmetrical which (more from luck than judgement) my tripod was just at the right height to capture.
On noticing the place was occupied (lights, shoes etc) the mantra became 'just one more floor' (what could possibly go wrong stu!? ) and more floors we did until we got bubbled by security at ground level....shame as there was a lot more to see (where is that bloody Skeleton?!) but after an initial, mutually respectful chat coupled with the usual private property blah blah we where shown the gate but not without feeling quite pleased with ourselves....a nice explore, if a little scary, but I like the nerves....keeps us on our toes right?
So, onto the pics - full slideshow with loads more available here: https://www.flickr.com/photos/125506319@N04/sets/72157650792023895/
