Gloucester and 200 miles in any direction daily
Had to visit this site today for work to rip some kit out before this site gets demolished to make way for new flats.
Its a sheltered retirement block of flats. I dont think it needs demolishing but they got a government grant so down it comes!
It wasn't the best explore as I was there for work and only had my compact in the car so photos aren't too good but better than nothing.

Still - it was good to get paid to explore a derelict building:lol:

Ye Gods, it hasn't been around for all that long either! What a complete waste, eh! The councils are always banging on about recycling and being waste efficient, then they're more wasteful than anyone! All that electrical equipment too! Not to mention a funky teapot! ;)
Some nice pics there Jules. Love that funky teapot! :mrgreen:
 
Agree with Foxy, it's only been around for 23 years, don't know how councils can get onto us normal folk about wasting resources when they can build something then knock it down and replace it in 23 years. grrrrrrrrrrrrrr!!!!!!!!!!

Excellent pics. Love the tea pot too. And seeing loads of equipment still left there. Complete with the tv on.

Cheers,

:) Sal
