HISTORY- the only info i could find on this place was what i found on the actual premises ! woodplumpton sports hall was officially opened on 24 march 1964 by a MR T H ETHRINGTON who was the sunday school superintendent , the hall was made for the benefit of local methodist children and was part of the garstang methodist circuit.
at the time of my visit the place was being converted into a private residence, see photos for plans !
THE EXPLORE- while riding my trike through the country lanes of preston , my passenger /missus/fellow explorer @Cazel#HT noticed this empty hall with a security fence around it , i had a quick gander and found an entry point ready for a re-visit , we jumped back on the trike and headed to the bike rally we was attending . on our way back 2 days later we made our way in with not too much fuss , though 10 minutes into the explore my trike n pod which was parked directly in front of the building attracted the attention of a nosey neighbour opposite, by this time a biker mate pulled up behind my parked vehicle thinking i had engine trouble , this brought the nosey neighbour over to find out what was bloody going on ? my mate n missus met the nosey parker and made known that we where there to take pics only and not to call the rozzers , so while them lot were having a chat i carried on with my explore ....lol
THE PICS- as usual i used my trusty canon 10-18mm wide angled lens , such a useful lens ! enjoy the pics folks !
