Quite a short explore as the club itself was tiny but still had a few things inside that made up for the explore, surprised to find bottles of alcohol intact and wondered why the...

Never expected to get in this place after hearing a lot of people had failed to get inside the main building. Didnt bother with the outer buildings and went straight to the main building and was happy to get inside. The College was a fantastic explore, only room I didn't get in was the old...

Came across this one by chance, done a few places in Harrogate and never even knew this place existed. Quite liked this one, haven't done many colleges, so was different to the hotels and house I always seem to do. Explore took about an hour to do, place was pretty trashed,however for a...
