St Peters Orphanage - originally built in 1899, once a orphanage, transformed to a borstal and then a care home. the place closed its doors in 1998 and has been left to rot since. Abit of an old explore but definitely one worth writing about. I was lucky enough to visit this place about a...

After hearing about the place from a work mate who had previously visited I thought I’d take a trip as I was intrigued. I didn’t know much about the buildings history but further research brought up some horrible things that went on. First of all you’re greeted by a big abandoned eye sore that...

So we had heard horror stories about this place, years of child abuse that occurred in the place. When we got inside the place was in ruins, half of the place has been knocked down but we managed to get in quite easily and got some decent shots inside. We've heard rumors that the place will all...

Had my eye on this one for a while now. This place started out life in early 1900 as an orphanage, then became a borstal, and more recently a nursing home. It closed in 1997 and has been stood empty since. Last time I had a look around, there were people inside and lots of evidence of drugs use...
