Ghost prison!
Evening all,
If, having properly steeled yourself, you look he http://maps.google.co.uk/maps?f=q&hl...oc=addr& om=1 You'll see a horrific, spectral prison, through which the pattern of paths and fields on the ground where it lies is still visible. A ghostly prison, built to hold who knows what manner of eldritch inmates - and even more terrifying, it's in Staines! tom PS Actually this: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bronzef...28HM_Prison%29 Presumably built between two aerial photos of the area being taken or something. -- Also giving up smoking (cigarettes) today so apologies if it reads wierd or I trail off into maddness at any point!! -- Agent D, 20051129 |

The basement is still accessible, and fairly safe; its fairly old - at least 19th century, and very creepy. |

I found an estate with no rooves on... it looks like one of those diagrams you see in estate agent windows. http://maps.google.co.uk/maps?hl=en&...&t=k&z=19&om=1 If you look at the same estate in Windows Live Local, the Birds Eye Views show the estate completed, but the plan view shows the stuff that was demolished to make room for it. |
