Mildly disappointing this one. A mate had tipped me off the other day that it looked accessible. I was hoping for vaults, but found only rooms with purple carpet. The building itself feels like one of those early post-war numbers that was still using deco-styling but in a spartan, almost utilitarian fashion. The best example of this was the sadly fire damaged, curving stair and tall windows.


Outside


Purple carpet


Stairwell to courtyard


Windows


Burnt stair. The letters R A P in the shot are not preceded by a B, but an S C…alas


I know it’s a bank, but there’s always a bloody safe…


Scallys have practiced smashing the reinforced glass
