Wednesday, 15 December 2010. Billinge Hospital, wigan. Visited here with Snowdudejohn, he had been past it a few times and surgested going! When we went there was only 2 buildings left, all the rest of the site had been leveled for a new housing estate. visited in the summer, so i doubt there is anything left by now! Billinge Hospital was originally founded in 1837 as a Wigan Poor Law Union hospital and workhouse.Mental Health services are still available. Keys, for what? A lot of locks id say. Firstly S...

Wednesday, 23 March 2011. Here is a great article on nileguide.com by Rachel Greenberg of top 11 abandoned UK asylums which is really worth a read if you have the time! Some of my pics were used for st. marys asylum in stannington, which is on page number 7. Ravenhead glass, st helens. aug 2010. We didnt get any external shots as there were people on site. :). The office had been fairly trashed but still some interesting stuff to take pics of. I really like the colours of the glass on the walls in here.

Thursday, 4 March 2010. Preston odeon revisited. Nov 09. A revisit of original post. Went back after we found out we missed the second screen some how! Any way visited with Over and to say the least it was easier this time! Hope you enjoy the pics! Since my first visit i found a action group that is looking at getting the 1928 cinema back in to use here. These first 3 pics are from of the roof above the main street. Second screen, not many seats in here at all. Piece of old film found on floor!

Sunday, 20 September 2009. Leeds international pool, leeds. june 09. Here is what we went all the way over to leeds. For, as it was going to be demolished soon (been done at the moment). we got in to the roof and was walking around the roof for 20 mins. Trying to find a way down! Did it was worth it but its a bit of a mess now! From top of the diving board, shows the size of the place. Looking back at the diving boards with Over doing some pull ups! That was up on the wall at the back of the place. What ...

Wednesday, 23 March 2011. Ravenhead glass, st helens. aug 2010. After ending up in st.helens with Over we decided to go and have a look at the old ravenhead glass factory, to be quite honest it looked part demolished but still it was worth the time and the epic climbs to get in! We didnt get any external shots as there were people on site. :). The office had been fairly trashed but still some interesting stuff to take pics of. I really like the colours of the glass on the walls in here.

Friday, 4 June 2010. Burnley Empire Theatre, Burnley - Jan 10. Visited here with andyj23uk, not the quickest of places to get in but worth it! History:- it originally opened in 1894 and was converted in 1938 to a cinema, since then it was converted in to a bingo hall! As you can tell.its the ceiling! These lamps are all over the place and they are great looking things. Taken from http:/ cinematreasures.org/theater/22279/. However all was not quite lost as it re-opened the following day under a new name C...
