Derelict Places
I am looking to take some shots of derelict buildings and could do with some locations, I am sure someone on here mentioned an old Asylum in Shropshire with access or any other locations would be appreciated.

We used to go round derelict buildings quite a lot exploring with a mate of mine and this other lad... went round the Royal Hospital in Wolves , Some mill by it near the train station and Featherstone army base. Got a load of the photos here:
photoaddiction.co.uk (he did old Central studios and Longbridge too!)

Wanted to go looking round the old Shrewsbury Hospital site for a bit but I think they've started knocking it down now.

Give us a shout if you're going round anytime soon and I'll come with you.

Theres some derelict castles nearby by like Acton Burnell, parts of Shrewsbury Castle, Haughmond Abbey, Ludlow, Stokesay or The Maltings in Shrewsbury, not sure if you can get in though. There is an old derelict windmill in Telford round the tracks that go round the back of the town park.

I'm not sure whether you'd bump into any crackheads up that block.
