  • Abandoned – House in Oxfordshire

    Interior and exterior shots of a little bit of urbexing, or more accurately, rur-exing considering it’s location. I spotted it while driving past and decided to have a little look around – especially given the big gap in the fence (which, given the rate the Landrover crossed the field in my direction as I swiftly departed, I suspect may now have been fixed).


    Abandoned House

    Oddly though, it’s been completely cleared of debris, there’s none of the roof inside the building, so it may be that it’s going to be rebuilt.

  • Bristol North Baths [not quite abandoned]

    Okay, they’re not abandoned, but looking at some of the interior detail you’d be hard pushed to tell. Here’s my photoshoot from Bristol North Baths; alledgedly they’re due to close next month, which will leave me deeply pissed off.

    They’re beautiful – and as you can see – they’re pretty much exactly the way they were built. I’ve not included the shots, but it’s still got it’s chimney and boiler rooms from way-back-when. Also, a detail I noticed while swimming is the original ‘Emergency Exit’ painted signs still adorning the walls above the newer cubicles.

  • Stoke Gifford [abandoned]

    Stoke gifford being a fairly recently built area there’s not much that’s obviously abandoned; but there is an old ‘aircraft navigation aid’ which I spent a happy 20 minutes pottering around grabbing photos of…

  • Photography – Rather belated – Lakedistrict Films!

    I was going to go into big’ol explanations about these, but I probably won’t now, because I’m very lazy. Any way, here’re some pics from the Lakedistrict. There’s too many for me to put them all up here (that’s a complete lie; I’m again too lazy to put them all up) – but here’s some of my favourites.

  • Breakers/Brakes

    I’m not quite sure if this counts as abandoned, a lot of the scrapyards (breakers / junk yards) near me have had to close (environmental legistlation regarding oil pollution… (mutters darkly about politics)) but this isn’t actually one of them. This is one that appears to have grown as a result of the others closing, but it means that running near the back of the yard is the pile-of-dead-car parts that used to signify the end of the scrapyard.

    This probably 5 foot high bank of junk has slowly gathered the dirt and muck from the rest of the yard as new cars have been piled precariously on top. And the bank itself is being taken over by vegitation. I took a couple of shots (I only took my digi-cam to take some video of me getting the parts for my car) of the bank, but this one’s come out the best….
