Excellent pics mate, really like the look of the salon, and the stairs, liked those when we were there. Still haven't got back here, and still haven't got in the salon yet. :cry: We'll definitely have to get back up to here soon.

Cheers,

:) Sal

Its a big old place isn't it. We spent over 3 hours there and didn't get to see everything.

Nice to see the old stylee dial phones, i remember our 1st phone being the same as that white one :)

Yeah the phones are cool, there were loads of them everywhere

When did this campus close?
Where is the Buxton site now?

About 2005 I think, though don't quote me on that. I think the campus is now situated in the centre of buxton, Im sure someone more local could confirm this.
 
Good work,Its good to see its not been totally trashed.We spent half a day in the place earlier in the year and I am sure we missed bits.Its shameful how much "good"stuff they just abandoned when they left.
Well worth a visit before they demolish it and turn the site into yet more matchbox houses which I believe is the plan according to hoardings outside:exclaim:
 
That place sounds like a good afternoon out...i must getthere before too long....

nice report.
 
any planned visit

If anyone is planning a visit to this site soon, I would love to tag along.
PM me to let me know when.
