"When there’s enough left in a building from its past use, I can definitely get a sense of the people that used the building, how they went about their work or their lives in these spaces… you can almost see workers going by and parishioners going down an aisle. You really get that sense."

Chernobyl Exclusion Zone
October 2014
28 years after the Chernobyl nuclear disaster the towns and cities that lie with the exclusion zone lie abandoned and disused. It resembles a post-apolocaytpic scene in which nature has begun to reclaim everything in it's path. I have wanted to take a trip here for years and had the opportunity, with some good friends, to do so. I absolutely loved every minute of it. Truly remarkable to see.

The Hobbit House

A very peculiar building that looks just like something out of the Lord of the Rings or The Hobbit. Built by a farmer for his sheep but he got a little bit carried away. It's very charming and totally unique.

New Bridewell police station
June 2014
This building has always been regarded as a bit of an eyesore. An eight storey police station that, for the most part, resembles more of an office block. No holding cells unfortunately. The basement was full of equipment that was still running. A fun place to explore.
