Found some of my photos on old hard drive from a few months ago =]

I was in the area and met a boy in a band in a bar [as you do]..
Got chatting and told him about my search for abandonment!
He happened to know about this place as he used to live near it, next day I met him and off we went into the middle of the countryside...

It is owned by the Angel Group :confused:
And closed in 2005.
"formerly an airbase, which has been converted to provide a training centre. The property has four accommodation blocks providing 203 bedrooms, a purpose-built conference centre and various office and service buildings. The site also has two former aircraft hangers of 60,000 square feet each and a purpose-built vehicle body shop."

Most random place ever with a fire engine!
OH and I swapped my wangle for a fisheye that weekend with another boy in a band. Bad idea :/

Apparently this bit was used to train folk in the art of fitting carpets.
It was a wee house!
