A lovely little old parish school house, abandoned and hiding amongst the trees and ivy in a little place called Shirburn.
There really isnt any good info to be found online except this paragraph on wiki which says it all really...
This is my first explore and report since the birth of my son (he is 3 weeks old now) - I've been a bit quiet on here recently but I hope to get back into the swing of it again. I really enjoyed this explore (solo). It's amazing how quickly you forget the feelings of being in a place like this, knowing you shouldn't really be there, but appreciating it never-the-less - and trying to not get spotted getting in and out.
...and I think I'm out of practice - anyone who knows here will agree access isnt tricky but I managed to get stuck, then I got cramp in my leg half way in, and then spent the first 10 mins stomping around the place trying to walk it off At least the exit was more polished.
I was passing here on my way home from work today, so it would have been rude not to have popped in...
I hope you enjoy the pics.
Lol, I still have my work shirt on
Cheers

A parish school had been established by 1808. By 1871 it was described as occupying a cottage that had been converted into a schoolhouse. In 1946 it was reorganised as a junior school, and older pupils went to school in Chinnor. In 1950 Shirburn school was closed.
