I'd forgot about this place until I was out taking photographs of the flooding in the area. So anyway, I headed up here last Wednesday for a look around.

For a place that's had so much taken out over the past few months, there's still a fair bit to see, with old school stuff still knocking around.

Found this place a little bit sad actually. I'd hate to see any of my old schools end up like this. It just seemed such a shame to see the place like this. It was open until less than a year ago I believe. It's since closed as part of the three tier to two tier reforms.

Anyway, on to the photos.

The school crest.

The hall and gym. The crest is above the stage.

A closer view of the stage. Someone I know who went to this school a canny few years back said this was from when they did Alice in Wonderland.

The kitchens were an absolute state.

This was behind the stage, near what I think were changing rooms.
