Daresbury Hall, Cheshire 03/12
Not much info on this site, I was told about it by friends who are helping set up a Zombie Paintball centre! Thanks G and J! So it was a permission visit but I don’t think they expected me to venture so far into the place!
It is pretty badly damaged and dangerous with lots of tarpaulins to stop leaks rotting the floors – too late sadly! The main building was put up in 1759 in the Georgian style, in 1960 it became a residential place for handicapped people and many extensions were added. Now it is empty and the owners made a pastime of shooting fridges with shotguns by the nearby Lewis Carroll Unit (Which I shall post as a separate explore) Internally it was like a maze and one staircase was blocked off leaving me to retrace my dangerous route disgruntled! Enjoy! Office! But for the hole in the ceiling – it was intact! http://i5.photobucket.com/albums/y16...ickb/DM-66.jpg Plaque! You can’t use these terms anymore! http://i5.photobucket.com/albums/y16...kb/AAAKAnt.jpg Relax and tell me about your mother! http://i5.photobucket.com/albums/y16...ckb/DM-2-2.jpg Big fridge! http://i5.photobucket.com/albums/y16...ckb/DM-6-2.jpg Abandoned rally car!
