    Arrow Thornseat Lodge, Near Strines/Bradfield. Report 19.06.08

    Thornseat Lodge, Near Strines/Bradfield. Sheffield.

    Bit of history:
    Thornseat Lodge was originally built in 1855 as a shooting lodge for William Jessop steel maker. It became a children's home in the 1930's and remained such up until the early 1980's Since then it has become derelict.

    I was on my way from Sheffield to Leeds and decided to have a look at Thornseat Lodge (solo explore). There's not much about it on the net really. The place is in a terrible condition, the floors are a death trap, there is no way to get upstairs, Not much of a problem as most of the floors have fallen down to ground floor level!

    Pictures:


    Main gates




    W J carved into the stonework. For William Jessop.


    Swimming pool!


    Laundry.




    View out through hole in 1st floor and then out through a lay-light.


    Kitchen door.


    Open plan kitchen!


    AGA!



















    Cheers


    Cool place, go on have a look, you'll like it!
