Yep the best way for even more people to do a number on it is to keep naming np sites.

Is there any particular reason to put this building in non public?

Local kids are up there every night trashing the place.

I was the first in here since it was doable again and put in in there so peeps could get the chance to take a look as these places tend to get sealed pretty quick, plus the fact churches seem to go up in flames in no time lately. Just to protect the place basically. Beardy did ask if it was OK to use it for his blog. No worries fella but I do think we should be doing more to protect some of the more historical / vulnerable sites.

Some bugger ought to get word to the owner this needs re boarding or it will be another bonfire.

Sadly the local kids are using it for some kind of haunted house experience, I only live 3 miles away from here and go past most days on the way to the motorway and see various groups going in. With the best will in the world, we don't own these places and have learn't over the years that although sentiment is good, it cannot stop the inevitable happening if outside influences are determined to destroy.

True, but does that mean you should just not try?

Quite right Mr Batz, as much as derping is about getting into places, sometimes you've got to do what you can to preserve a place, even if it means sealing it off to other derpers.

Ask for a key to the door in return!

Its like digging sand, look at George Barnsleys for example, the contents were being sold off on ebay. As fast as the owner was bricking up the place it was getting looted again.

You're right about GB's, but this place has contents worth approx £0.00 - I guess it's a personal choice if someone wants to try track down the owner/company responsible for the sale of this place and try get it sealed back up.
