flats

This is my first post on the forum (and first urbex trip) so please bare with me if I make some mistakes. I have no idea about the history of the building, sorry! Entering the place was quite difficult, the flats and large open courtyard were surrounded by high wooden fences and a site gate...

Hi! I'm sorta new here, and wanted to share a piece of art I made on the history of the park hill flats in Sheffield. I enjoyed the whole filming process. I hope this is okay to post here. I'm always wanting to get out and explore. Love drains. let me know if you've got any interesting...

My exploration of the Highway Flats in Leeds was quite a while ago, but, as life tends to go, other things got in the way... From what I’ve found, these flats were built in the mid-1960s and had been vacant for some time. They’d been marked for demolition for years, and work finally began just...

Jumping on the tour bus here. Visited with @The0farrell over a week ago now back on the 20th of May. At this point there were only 2 posts on this place posted the night before we went. I never really post my explores on here, I've only posted a couple. I thought about posting this place but...

Park Hill Estate is a gastly sight today although they are regenerating it. This made for quite a creepy explore. We have wrritten about the history of Park Hill Flats here.

Okay so this one has always been in the back of my mind as one of the Iconic sites in Sheffield that was a must I visited, on a very recent visit to another Top Sheffield site there was infinite views over the city with Park Hill smiling at me in the background and calling my name haha. Park...

Park Hill is a former inner city council housing estate and was developed by architects Jack Lynn and Ivor Smith in 1945. The concrete monolith was later constructed between 1957 and 1961, in response to large-scale social housing problems which were further augmented as a result of World War...

this is my first report so i hope i get everything as per the faq's. coming from sheffield this is a site that i've grown up with as an icon of the skyline. i have always been fascinated by the structure and the atmosphere of the place. i made a couple of trips here and had planned to access...

Hello all! Well after managing to get out for a couple of hours, Tom Sherman decided we should try these flats which have been stripped out, and are awaiting refurbishment from my understanding. Not the most easiest of explores, as the roof is via a "loft hatch" rather than concrete stairs onto...

Richmond Flats, Huddersfield - August 2013 Apologies it's another rooftop. Apologies it's another relatively small one from Huddersfield, too. I'd previously looked at this with Fudge, but we got spooked having set off alarms and bailed. 60s Richmond flats was the second of three...

Having passed Park Hill Flats countless times over the past 18 year or so I've always fancied getting up on the roof so after managing to miss out on a trip here earlier in the year there was no way I was passing this opportunity up, especially with the knowledge of the access tunnels...

Hi! History and part story taken from Stopford_lad 's recent post! Gorton Villa Towers - Manchester Situated on Gorton Villa Walk, the old location for the filming of the tv series 'Shameless' stand these two high rise 1960's tower blocks. Devoid of any discernible character from the...

Decided to go and check these towers out in the small hours of a cold September morning after getting a tip off from another explorer. Not expecting more than an outside staircase to climb full of locked up flats I was wonderfully surprised to find that access to the entire tower was possible...

Not posted for a while,so me and Whittyboy went for an explore as the opportunity was to good to miss. These flats are due for demolition soon, Bridgeman house in Homethorpe was demo'd in July this year, next on the list is MILLDANE later this year and then soon to be followed by the Ashthorpe...
