Visit
I had been meaning to go and check this place out since I first started Urbexing.
I met up with @HippieGirl & @UrbanBloodyBear and decided to make our way over to Huddersfield.
Once we waited for the traffic and pedestrians to walk by, we decided to make use of the time window we had. We must of spent at least 2 hours exploring the place, maybe more!
