Arrow Pics From Longbridge Just After It Closed

Was looking at a website called 28 Day Later. Primarily to have a look at what an old pub up the road looked like that had been closed for 20 years and left as a time capsule.

After looking at this I put in Longbridge and one of the photo posts that cameup was this:

I thought it was very good and quite sad. Hope you like some of the pics (nowt to do with me).

Dave

I find it sad looking at this. What once was a thriving place turned into a ghost town basically overnight. Thanks for reminding me of this site though its nice to look through

Have a look on the website for where you live and if there is something derelict, someone will have posted pics.

Try searching for "Hoarders House" its a good one.

Also "Gipsies Tent" that pub is 2 mins walk from me.....

While we're on the subject of UE it would be rude not to spam my own explores from around the Yorkshire area:
