Re: Derelict places

This bloke, Phil Davison, specialises in taking photos of abandoned places, mostly in West Yorkshire. He manages to get permission to enter places that nobody else is allowed to venture. Apparently the only place he has never been able to get access to is the abandoned cinema in the Merrion Centre in Leeds. The owners absolutely refuse permission for some reason.

Re: Derelict places

I found the Derelict Places site a few months ago as well, I also think it's really fascinating. I found the Derelict London site a few years before that and now theres a 'Derelict London' book by the founder of that site. I'd like to see a 'Derelict Places' book featuring some of the photos on the DP site.

As mentioned before, I love taking photos and Months ago I found a site that is nostalgic but not in the way ours is. It is photos of derelict buildings, churches etc. I suppose it is the last throes of reality before only nostalgia remains. A sad but fascinating site.

If this IS permitted here it is well worth a look for places near your home towns.
