I took a trip to this old care home, which has been posted on here before so you probably know all about it anyway!

I have no idea how recently the care home was used, but there is paperwork inside dating between 1984 and 1994.

The place was a little trashed but not too bad considering how easily accessible it is. The main cause for the houses damage is from water which has lead to the floor collapsing in the kitchen, and ceilings collapsing elsewhere, which meant that when venturing upstairs I was paying ever more attention to how light-footed I was being.

Anyway, enjoy the pictures:







Each floor on the building is of considerable size; the ground floor had 2 reception rooms, 2 bathrooms, 1 kitchen, and 2 bedrooms, and a few cupboards:











And a couple of selfies:























Of course, being the nosey person I am I ventured into the loft and managed to get out on to the roof:





One additional note is the amount of empty wine bottles I found lying around; these oldies certainly knew how to party.

Thanks for looking,

Rubex
 
Looks a great place miss rubex.would not mind seeing this myself.
 
Bloody Hell Rubex, Be careful, There ain't many old, bold explorers,I can't shout at ya couse I'd have done the same, just, Think about what you're doing before you do it, I've bin lucky and stayed lucky when I took a chance, I realize this won't stop you and I wouldn't want it to but I enjoy your posts, so I'd appreciate it if you hung around for awhile.
I enjoyed looking, Thanks

Thank you for your concerns Smiler :) I'm always very careful when exploring and don't take any unnecessary risks. I only explore areas I personally feel safe to be in. There's been many occasions where I've wanted to explore places, but the danger has put me off!
 
Fantastic post Rubex! I have to agree with Smiler though; a pretty young thing like you needs to be careful not to hurt herself!
 
That looks a very nice explore like where the weed thing is creeping across wall and fireplace nice find ;)
 
i really like this report, looks an interesting place
Its sometimes not a bad idea to tell someone where you're going before venturing into a place like this on your own
Top work, and even a couple of Selfies
 
I am sure rubex that you play safe..and to be honest being female you are prob more cautious than most men.sometimes we think we are invincible and can do anything lol.i cringe at some of the things I have done.
 
Great report. I have not ventured out on my own yet. Either my husband, son or male friend with me!
 
Oooo, good to see the albums are where I left them, lol.
You are brave risking the roof, that floor looked too wrecked for my liking.
Nice photos Rubex :)

Thanks LadyPandora :) I loved it here. I was just very careful where I stepped lol!

I've been trying to reply to your PMs but your inbox is full :( hopefully speak soon!
