Barton Arcade

Barton Arcade was built in 1871. The arcade was extensively restored in the 1980s and now houses shops and a number of office suites. The original shop fronts have disappeared, as has the original decorative tiled floor.

We'd heard about this place before, and whilst on a wander around Manchester we decided that we may as well have a look. Access wasn't instantly obvious but we got there soon enough :D

There was a big lot of fans & ventilation pipes up there, we had a game of spit roulette with one of them...let's just say it didn't end too well for some of us

It seems I have some sort of mental block that stops me remembering to bring a tripod along whenever I go out, you may have noticed the same in my last few reports.
Hope you enjoyed :thumb

Lmfao sounds fun ;) Hope you didn't fook yourself up falling off. If it's a fook up will just stick with my hotels etc. But like seeing the new stuff. But thx @Bolts for heads up.

The guys I was with at the time were...slightly apprehensive to go underground :banghead so the plan is to go back sometime soon
And I'd better get myself down there then :thumb
