This entire estate is being demolished to make way for new housing. This is my second trip there; they've got a bit more interested in stopping people - or at least appearing to stop people - from entering the bits of the estate which are no longer being lived in / being demolished. But there're still huge gaps in the fences and sections they've just not bothered with.
Sadly they're very good at boarding up the houses - especially frustrating when I could *just* see through the grilles, but there was no way to coax my camera to focus through a less than 1/2" square hole...
Anyway, here's some of the photos:
I also took the opportunity to take some shots of the garage (gas station) that was just outside the estate. This garage was still running full time until about a month ago. Istr it was closed on New Years. But the destruction brought down by local youths upon it is incredible.
There's some more here.
