Not strictly an admin block as such, but it's the front of the building where admin would have been.

When did those boards go onto Cane Hill

Bloody hell! They weren't there two weeks ago - the front door and all the windows were wide open then. What's the point in that? Do they really think people are going to climb in through those little circular windows on the first story?

I expect it's too protect (whats left of) them and stop the inside from deteriorating further. Even though demolition is coming to a close, the admin and chapel could remain derelict long after it finishes, so i expect they're trying to slow the decay. And I guess they don't want people getting in and burning it down, so they aren't taking any chances. Correct me if I'm wrong though.

less light = smaller number of explorers

^ Can send you a PM, I went inside with Jondoe264 but none of my photos came out - I have plenty of exteriors though.

That never stopped me

Nah I'm fairly certain I read somewhere that they are going to lengths to protect the buildings from further decay. I'll try and find a link.

Colindale

That's odd. Those boards weren't there at the beginning of March. I thought they were demolishing Colindale? I've seen one of the more modern outbuildings be demolished. I hope they remember to disconnect the gas supply to the boiler that's still burning after all these years before they knock it down.

I take it that means the admin block is being retained... Does anyone know anything else about its fate?

 

[mr_bones]

My Colindale photo is from 2005. I believe the boards were removed a few months ago.

 

[LiamCH]

That's really weird. Why would they remove the boards? I know there have been workmen inside... Was it simply that they wanted light? Still seems odd though.
