Hi

Here's my first report from the weekend, hope you like it and keep me right if I'm doing anything wrong/can improve my information

This house in Aberdeenshire has been empty for some time it was previously a hotel but I'd imagine due to the rural location that wasn't very lucrative it was also rented by a large oil firm for some time too, now in need of some TLC

Front elevation with square tower now rather overgrown and no glass/doors to save it from further deterioration from the elements

The lovely carving and detail above the entrance

Took a few photos looking through the windows into these impressive rooms due to the poor state of the ceiling and floors

Fireplaces and fixtures having been ripped out

And the beautiful double cornice being left to disintegrate from the ceiling

Nothing much left in the kitchen except this old stove

The lovely wooden ceiling starting to degrade too

I'd love to go back and explore more inside but due to going it alone and the disrepair thought better of it this time

Thanks for checking out this report, feedback welcome
:widea:
 
Nowt wrong with that, great report dude. Although it's trashed, it has some beautiful architecture to it. Cheers for sharing! :)
 
Did you not venture upstairs? This place is a pretty nice explore, nice report!
 
Wasn't sure about venturing on my own, next time, if the neighbour doesn't give me any more abuse lol

Maybe best going with someone, if there is abusive people about, and the place looks a bit dodgy inside. Best to keep safe. I would never go on an explore on my own...but then im a big softy :D

I've been a few times now, and never had a question or comment, but I just wave and smile and carry on! The upstairs access is pretty dodgy climbing over a burnt out roof.

Yeah, looking for a buddy to tag along with, even the pigeons managed to scare me :lol:

I did think about going up the spiral stair at the back but would still rather have someone with me:idea:
