Mayfield abandoned station - Manchester (image heavy)

My first report so go easy folks

Ive wanted to get in here, seemingly since the dawn of time, an opportunity presented itself , luckily I pretty much always carry my camera with me, I managed a good 120+ shots in here, sadly no tripod but wasn't really time anyway, a case of a quick in - shoot - leave.... here's a selction of what I shot inside


It's probably been on here before but like I say I'd wanted to get in for ages, it's a superb place with lots of charachter, a lot has been destroyed now but theres still plenty to see, sadly the place has been hit hard with cable thieves, there's evidence of it all over the place.. anyway, the pictures:

Apologies for the number of shots, hopefully you will find them interesting.

1. Street view outside the old station



2. Not anymore...



3. The platforms looking out to the main lines



4. Bit of local handywork..



5. Looking towards the main station buildings



6. Closer in again..



7. End of the line



8. Old ticket offices



9. Steps down to the ticket hall



10. Old stair knob



11. Stairs to nowhere, these just lead to a ornatedly tiled wall area, with nothing there..



12. Run!



13. New student accomodation through the old broken roof glass



14. Rusty hydraulic buffers



15. Moody Mayfield



16. Urban decay



17. Looking back towards the old station before leaving, probably forever.



Thanks for taking the time to look

Not a bad first report at all I've not been lucky enough to do a station like that yet. Nice one.

The 'run' shot made my eyes go funny though

Seems like a nice peaceful place too.

Even though it's close to us we've not done this place yet. I yake it you didn't meet any thuggish chavs there? There's been a bit of trouble witgh them in the past.

Nice

Might do a revisit when I get back

Nice report, cheers for posting them up
