It seems that the snow didnt stop some of us at the weekend, despite its best efforts and severe warning to drivers to take heed and stay at home, we had things to see and do and many many miles to cover to get to them

A fab weekend of adventure , lools , snow stuck cars , glimpses of virgin splores of things to come and this... a real delightful if murky past manor, a rare find in that it is decaying thru sheer neglect, bad weather and time, it seems without the pollution of vandalism and chavery , so you'll understand if details are not forthcoming

This was our second attempt here , Ssshhhh. and I were once again joined by Perjury Saint in our bid to splore....




+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ACCESS++++++++++++++++++ ++++++++++++++

We were literally grinning like cheshire cats to finally get in here

it's a contrasting mix of not too bad nick

as I regain my decorum and the lols die down, we make our way deeper inside, the equisitness notches up a tad, these sublime lime corridors were just awesome, we eye the PIRS carefully but they seem nice.

The Curious case of the Doppelganger by AlternativeDayOut, on Flickr

out in the many corridors , one of the numerous buckets and other recepticals to catch the nonstop water drops , someone is kinda looking after this gaff or they need the water to...


pink-corridor by Key Powt, on Flickr

Thanks for looking! :)
 
Lovely stuff there from both of you! Have to say though, that last shot from Sshhhh is just outstanding!

Would love to get inside that library... could spend hours looking through those books :)
 
You guys seriously have some screws loose! Could teach a lot of people a thing or two about fun.
Looks like an amazing place, I'd love to spend some time in that library.
I enjoyed your photos, and your video!

Keep 'em coming like this!
 
Fantastic pics there Mr Saint! None of Alt in his tights though, why ever not?:lol: Was a great day with fab company!:)

Thanks everyone for the lovely comments, much appreciated! :)
 
O.M.F.G That there is a Sweet DerpHouse, PERFECTLY photographed.

You lot are officially grounded as you keep coming up with these places and putting us to shame!

That library is pretty much exactly how i imagine the library will be in my 'Grand Design'
 
excellent report guys and gal, to many good pics, and a top video, loving the tights alt, spot on
