This place was like Kings Cross Station, no not "ladies of the night" all over the place, but busy, we met 4 guys leaving the place with that suspicious urban explore aura, slightly awkwardly trying to leave in plain site without being noticed.

We walked around the place and thought we found entry, clambered through the window into a 6ft square kitchen, not quite what i was expecting.

I clambered out while my boy took photos of me to amuse himself, watching me struggle, and as I found out when I got to see the pics, he took pictures of my newly developing receding hairline, thanks!

I went for another walk around the building and found a entrance that wasn't there before, strange. Then a woman dressed in a black victorian dress and vail appeared. To say it was a surprise would be seriously under estimating my reaction. It was fine though, some thoroughly decent people were undertaking a photo shoot, so we shared the space.

Not sure what happened with the photos, I didn't seem to be very composed, a bit rushed. I think it was because I was sharing the place.

Cheers for looking.
 
My oh my! Nice one buddy!

We were there last May or June and the scrote who owns it (we think) had opened the roof and stacked cast iron fireplaces ready for removal and removed stair carvings. I contacted Denbigh council listings department who then had an "interview without coffee" with him. So it looks like he made it water tight again?

Love the exterior pix... really nice angle on one in paerticular. My problem is I try to make horizontal = horizontal rather than dare to experiment.

Great job buddy!

The place did look as if it had been sealed recently, new boards up and shiny new signs. Inside all the fireplaces are missing their iron work. but the main house seemed pretty water tight.
