Whilst up in Nottingham, me and a few friends decided to check out the old Officers Mess at Syerston. Initial plan was to do RAF Honiley, but we want to do that in winter. So here's Syerston instead.
Mess closed in 1970, and was used as an Islamic School until 2007. It's since been set on fire, and decayed pretty rapidly considering it's only been 10 years. Was planned to be demolished in 2013, however that was dropped and proceedings were put in place to ensure that it was blocked off to stop people getting in. That has obviously not happened yet. Can imagine it's a bit of an eye sore for the local community as it's hanging, and pretty hard not to see.
Overall it's a very bland explore. Not a lot to see other than a very poor condition building. On par with Upwood with regards too it's condition.

Smashed TV looking like it'd been dumped here very recently...

Initial impressions give you an idea of the condition inside...

Downstairs was much of the same, looking back at Upwood i'm assuming this was some sort of kitchen area?

From here we went to Newton. Got a fair few photo's of the School (think it's a School) and the Pump room, but not many others, only reason i went was to see if i could find the buildings where they filmed this is England but they've gone i think! Would do a report but i don't really think it's worthwhile, anyhow, thanks for reading!
