The Abandoned Aquatics Shop - Swindon

This place has been left derelict after it relocated to a new building across the road.
Completely trashed in the most part but I think the tanks was a deliberate act to stop them being taken and reused.

Former Rosewell Care home - Bristol

Roswell was an 80 bed carehome that closed in 2016 after some recommendations were made in 5 areas after an inspection. Although closure wasn't forced the owners said due to this and staffing issues it would close and relocate it residents elsewhere.
In 2017 The care home group acquired the building and promised a revamped 50 bed 5 star care facility with studio apartments and communal facilities.
This never materialised and in 2019 Carlauran group a developer was taken to the high court with the view to put it into administration after up to £50m was unaccounted for which came from investors into multiple carehome projects around the UK one investor had to sell his home after repayments from his investment never materialised and he couldn't keep up with his own bond payments.
Today it sits derelict awaiting it's fate although that fate doesn't look promising.

Popped over to Rudloe Manor site 1 on the way home from another explore.
Still looking as derelict as ever but some of the nature taking over the buildings make it look so apocalyptic ✌️✌️

Studley Manor Farm House

Studley Grange Farmhouse is a Grade II listed farmhouse on the outskirts of Swindon which comprises the original three-bay farmhouse and an extension to the right. The listing description for the farmhouse states that it is 18th century at the earliest, however it is now believed to be much earlier in date.

This site was the medieval grange of Stanley Abbey from at least 1460. It remained in the possession of the Abbey until the Dissolution when it came into the ownership of Sir Edward Seymour. It is likely that the original farmhouse was built in this period. Interior photographs show that the building is cruck-framed, and recent dendrochronology studies by the Wiltshire Buildings Record have shown that crucks are not found in Wiltshire after c.1530. There are other features which suggest an earlier date, such as a finely moulded beam.

The exterior of the original farmhouse is whitewashed rubble limestone with a Roman tile roof. The ground-floor windows have timber lintels, but the first-floor windows have segmental brick arches and brick jambs. When an extension with a new front door was added to the right of the original farmhouse, the original door was blocked. The extension is lower than the original farmhouse but uses the same materials and has an outshot porch with a Roman tile roof.

The house is long unoccupied as it is owned by a waste company who have used the surrounding fields as a landfill site. Though the house is becoming derelict, its shell is still intact, and there is every hope that it could be restored to use. This is especially the case now as the land around it which was used for landfill is in the final stages of being restored with environmental mitigants in place and the planting of grassland and woods, with public footpaths and tracks through the site linking it to a restored section of the Wiltshire and Berkshire canal and adjacent Garden centre, Butterfly and farm attraction.
