Haven't seen a lot of this place for a while so thought I'd post this as my first report here. Visited back in September with Dr.Doo, the nice people from 'urbanlincs' and a local lad who we didn't encourage to skip off college for the day :lol:

Even when not using 120 film, I can't resist a square crop!

Sadly the only shot I got of the fabulous staircase, I was getting jittery by this point as the builders were working just a few meters away!

Sadly the visit was cut short when we practically bumped into a builder, I'm not sure who was more surprised but we made a very quick exit and gave the pursuing security guards a friendly wave on the way out :ohmy
