Ridley's closed in 2005 after being taken over by Greene King. Some would say they deserved it after they did exactly the same thing to Tolly Cobbold a few years earlier!!

I found out about the place earlier in the year and Fieldy and Kongzi went to have a look but apparently it was still patialy in use. Today id say im pretty sure its 100% closed! Unfortunaly some parts have been stripped, which is slightly annoying as i was hoping for another Tollys but never the less theres still a shit load of good stuff in there!

I covered most of it today, i think, but didnt get into the office area, or any of the out buildings
