History of the site:
Brenntag Chemicals that are situated near the site abandoned their social club several years ago.
The building was fully intact until an arson attack June 6th 2012, this left the building in ruins.
Travelling on the bus every week day, I passed this site from a distance. Considering the building has been left derelict for almost two years - I doubt it will be around much longer, so I took it upon myself to do some exploring.
From the distance I'd seen it before I didn't know the extent of the damage from the arson attack. This was the most dangerous exploration I've performed so far. There were long metal shafts hanging loosely from the ceiling, shattered broken glass carpeting the floor, I had to be completely aware of my surroundings at all times. It was quite a scene. Even though the danger was there, I left without so much of a scratch which I realise now, was beyond lucky.
Nevertheless, I hope you enjoy the photographs!
