📚 An abandoned Victorian-era library, somewhere in England

@ObsidianUrbex This immediately made me think of a section of the original Bioshock game where there was a catwalk above several rooms where the ‘Little Sisters’ were studied…

@ObsidianUrbex Is it actually still a library if it doesn't have books?!

@ObsidianUrbex Who builds a grand vaulted room only to fill in the space with small rooms along a narrow corridor? Probably these were wartime additions when the library got repurposed for something else.

@ObsidianUrbex

Out of curiosity, I suspect you often would have to wear some sort of air filter in some of these places because icky things like mold and what not?

@ObsidianUrbex This is so interesting. I've always loved to explore places crystallized in some moment of the past, either far or relatively recent.

@ObsidianUrbex

Would like to know the back story: why was it abandoned?
