Top report and could have picked a better location for your first explore well done. It’s a cracking site. Bye the way any wellies left.

Lovely report,

I remember going to do this years ago and walking into police training, that was definitely a wasted journey back then,

Do they still use the place for training or is it completely abandoned now?

For anyone who is not Northern, has seen this place dozens of times on the forum, and is debating whether it looks worth the long journey to visit - as a highly cynical explorer I urge anyone who has not been here to go. It is even more magical than it looks in the photos and is simply one of the best derelict buildings still available in England. Many a well travelled explorer will back this statement up without hesitation.

It is 10 years to the month since I last had the pleasure of viewing the interior of this building in person and would echo the above statement. If I wasn't hamstrung by work and children, I'd like to pay another visit.

Thanks for the positive feedback.

There are still plenty of signs up warning that police dogs are being trained but we never came across any when we visited.

Thanks for your kind words. Hopefully I can get to a few more places local to me and write some more! Glad you liked it
