A few of my shots..

These platforms were seemingly racks of shelving in a flooded room. The water seemed to be about 4 ft deep, and pretty scummy looking.





Th older building basements..





A dead rat with no fur..



And the rooftops..

Yep. Seemed to be two access points right next to each other. On the Crosshall Buildings side.

The Crosshall Buildings seemed to be some sort of warehouse, theres a date stone on the back, think it was 1894 ish.

The weird thing was, we walked past the main front doors on the inside a few times. They were closed for sure. When we came out of the building and walked round the front to get an external shot, the same doors were wide open! Can only assume it was security doing a check? They must have just gone in as we came out through our entry point.

georgie made a good point before, could have been crackheads inside the building that we scared out

though I doubt the door was just on latches, surely it would be locked via a key at least!

thats what we were looking for when we found this!

we tried the rooftop, basement, and every floor inbetween; no access to the church

might be worth hoping over that fence one night (next to the door of the church), thats the only place now where you could possibly go in
