They're moving to the Wild Place project site and redeveloping the Clifton Site. At some stage the old site will be ready for the builders to move in and the opportunity for a look round will present itself. Possibly risky at the moment.

Planning ref 22/02737/F on Simple Search

Search for drawing 11585-LD-SKE-230222 A for a before and after drawing. Houses round the outside, central area being kept as a park. Lots of interesting things being demolished by the look of it.
Also good images on Google streetview Google Maps

There's an abandoned zoo/theme park type place in Korea which still has a Tiger living in it, don't let a few apes put you off

I think it would be more that there is very much animals/people still on site till then.

There's a crane on site there now, pretty sure I've heard that there's still a lot of general presence on the Zoo site because they use a lot of the buildings on site as conference rooms and stuff? Might have a little scope around some time in the new year but will have to see.
