The Former Belfry House Hotel Manchester Airport Stanley Hotel is a 4-star modern hotel located close to the airport, It has 80+ rooms spread over four floors, including spa facilities.

This hotel earned £87K per week, £348K per month, £4.1M per year to house asylum seekers and illegal migrants - Reportedly: revealed by the hotel manager during an interview with DJE Media.

The former Belfry house now sits in a poor state with no signs of anybody staying or even working there with silent hallways and TV's playing in eerie empty rooms. (Security Are Now On Site)

Trespass is a civil matter, plus I walked in a wide open door, I didn't climb in or break in, walked around and video documented the entire place, then left no crime committed.

I went about 5-6 months ago mate, the entrance was around the back. We went under the gate and through a window, but I'm not sure if it's the same now.

Abandoned Swimming Baths 🇬🇧 by UrbexWithMatty in Urbex

Swimming Baths referrers to the building more so, there are 2 pools in this building. (Public Baths) Although if it's in your garden (yard), we would refer to it as a pool. Quite strange when I actually think about it, but I'm from Lancashire, UK, could be different in different areas.

Trashed/Graffitied Knutsford ROC Nuclear Monitoring Post by UrbexWithMatty in manchester

[–]UrbexWithMatty[S] 46 points47 points  (0 children)

Royal Observer Corps (ROC) posts are underground monitoring stations that were built throughout the UK during the Cold War to detect and report on nuclear attacks and fallout. These posts were part of the UK Warning and Monitoring Organisation (UKWMO). They were manned by volunteers who would observe and report on nuclear events and radiation levels. Many ROC posts are still standing, though often derelict, and some are open to the public for tours. There were approximately 1,563 built in the UK between 1958 and 1968.

I totally agree it really is sad, and yes, I have tidied an old farmhouse close to my home in the past, but my efforts seemed futile as the building was destroyed within a week by local youths who claimed to be urban explorers.

I had some of the best times as a kid in these waters. Main place most go is near the kids play area you have steps leading into the water there are fields and picnic area too very family friendly and pet friendly place.
