Royal Masonic School for Boys chapel dec '12

[shot_in_the_dark]

Yes, I am more than well aware that this site has been done plenty of times, but it's pretty local to me, so i figured it was time to go, before it's too late. Met up with 'Pen15' (who was a great tour guide and company), and went for a look.

i was intent on seeing the chapel more than anything else, so we only spent a little time looking in small parts of the actual school building.

i haven't included a history, as i would only be repeating others info.

onwards with the images...

Love your images Shot in the Dark! "Top notch stuff"

Hello Folks,
Just a handful from me as well and they were taken over the last few months.
You beat me well and good haha. It has made me pull my finger out and get some images done.
It was great to visit the site with you, as well as all the others (too many to mention lol).

Like Shot in the Dark, this a local haunt of mine.
I have been quite a few times now and having seen many places on this web site, I would go as far as to say that the Chapel at the Freemasons school is right up there with all the stops on the “Urbex Tour Bus”.

Sadly this place, along with the rest of the site will soon disappear as the builders are moving back in. In-between the last two visits I have made, the port-a-cabins have been set up along with more fenced off areas. Tell-tale signs that this will soon be confined to the history books.

So long Chapel it was good knowing you.

I added this one because it was different. It was taken in the school.

​

Say your prayers!

Until the next time ​
