I've not managed to get out for a while and with the warm evenings we've had I decided to play this small venue a visit. The Meir Social and Sports club closed in mid 2015 with plans being submitted to demolish the current building and replace it with 17 homes and a smaller club. The site consists of the main club building with several function rooms, 2 bowling greens and a series of storage garages at the rear of the site. the upstairs of the property is pretty much gutted due to a fire that destroyed upper floor in October 2016. However the ground floor was in pretty good condition with many original feature still in tact. From the outside the club looks like it is going to be a shel but inside you'll find a office complete with files full of former members details and piles of photographs from various events held at the club, anyway on with the photos.

Nice one Gronk, it's a shame we only ever seem to find out about these clubs via the newspaper article describing the inevitable fire that's engulfed the place. Looks interesting nonetheless!

Ahh nice one, good to see inside this. It'd dropped down my list a bit after the big fire as I assumed it was completely gutted, but seems like there is actually stuff to see still.
