kinmel hall

Not sure if this is the right place to post but I was planning t go to Kinmel Hall this weekend but the house has been sold and is now in private hands in case anyone else was thinking of exploring there

History; (Stolen mostly from Wiki, sorry!) 1870 - Queen Victoria herself is believed to have stayed at Kinmel in 1870 when she presented carved wooden panels. Sadly these were stolen in 2013 1870's - The present chateau style house, the third on the site, was built for the Hughes copper mining...

After a few failed attempts last year, we managed to get into Kinmel Hall and had a nice chilled out explore. Even met a few fellow explorers inside. I think we may have been the last explorers to get access to the place as some people moved in the following weekend, and I've heard access has...

First of massive thanks to the raw for the heads up, a message to say that he'd been in started the ball rolling for us, a weekend visit from Mr bones and dmax led to us all heading down [myself, Cheryl, Chris R and Lisa]. On arrival we checked out the main entrance, way to much activity around...

The history of Kinmel Hall has been covered a few times on this forum, however, more in depth information regarding the building can be found via wikipedia - Kinmel Hall - Wikipedia The building its self is currently non accessible. Current renovation works have resulted in what I can only...

Driving through the fog was an experience in itself, We couldn't move we had that many items of clothing on / strapped inside our rucksacks. Jimmy was getting first rate education from myself and Appo about tent pegs, sheep and cattlegrids - All banter before we saw the mansion, From then on it...

Visited with Havoc. 10 billion years ago, I remember this coming up on the radar but for some reason it slipped out of my thoughts until it popped up in Havoc's and SparkUK's reports last month. I jumped at the opportunity to visit this grand house and it was an excellent little jaunt. The...

'kin hell hall they should call this..... It has a bit of a lived in feeling this has.... absolutely stunning though, but there can be a lot of activity there depending when you go so watch your backs. Anyway, history, Havoc covered a bit I think so I'll not harp on too much, but you should...
