Report - Shedden Hall, Torquay, Devon, June 2018

Why would they remove the asbestos? Cos they have to remove that before demolishing the rest, it has to be handled separately

In 2006 I worked in this hotel and to see it like this is heartbreaking

Burnt down 3 days ago, another 'fire of convenience'?

Polly!! What have you done to my hotel?

 

[Splorex]

Shedden buried soon then?

 

[Luke vaughan]

Well it's the developers fault who just sat on the fence in regards to just letting it stay like that and not do anything about it

Makes perfect sense; developers buy property, let it become an eye-sore, wait for it to catch on fire then claim on insurance.

This once stunning holiday resort has since seen better days, having been a family run hotel, it went out of business in 2012. After painstakingly weaseling in through a tiny window that had just recently been pried off, we found ourselves in the basement. There are so many stunning shots to be taken here and best of all, almost no graffiti at all. The building has been so well sealed for so long the knob heads hadn't had a chance to ruin too much. Though the top floor is a complete pigeon city lolView attachment 768316View attachment 768320View attachment 768323View attachment 768332View attachment 768333View attachment 768334View attachment 768335View attachment 768336View attachment 768337View attachment 768338View attachment 768339View attachment 768340View attachment 768341View attachment 768342

I've managed to pull wheelies UP that hill on a motorbike but not down it, and definitely NOT in a fire engine!
