Me and my mate (Jay_c2002) decided it would be interesting to explore a Mausoleum at 4am, here's the details.
Location - Faenol Estate, North Wales
Description - The Mausoleum can be found in some creepy woods on the Faenol Estate. Apparently it houses the tombs of the first owners of the estate but I read somewhere due to vandals and theft they where removed. Currently it's locked up and clearly neglected, ideal for exploration ;)

We couldn't get in this time because there wouldn't be a way back out again :p Will be going back again soon though, will post some snaps of inside the tunnels!!!
