🌟 Flashback to this time last year... 🌟
I spent ages discovering the hidden gem of St Eloi’s Church, Llandeloy in rural Wales. A medieval ruin transformed into an Arts and Crafts masterpiece. 🌈 Although no longer used for regular worship, it is lovingly cared for by Friends of Friendless Churches .
What an absolute treasure! 💚

🌟 Happy International Self-Care Day! ✨

Just a reminder that looking after ourselves is so important – it’s 24/7 or 7/24 today (hello, my US friends! 🇺🇸). It’s all about making time for YOU every day.

This year’s been a bit tough, but getting out with friends, snapping photos, going for walks, and hitting the gym really helps me feel better. 📸🚶‍♂️💪

Thanks to everyone who’s been there for me – your support means the world! 💚

Remember, self-care isn’t a one-off, it’s a way of life. So, take some time today to do what makes you happy! 🌟

Victorian Lock-up at Birmingham Central Police Station 🇬🇧🔒

Now part of the West Midlands Police Museum, Steelhouse Lane Lock-up opened in 1891 and was in use until 2016. 🚓

Prisoners typically stayed less than 24 hours before going to court, with an underground tunnel linking cells to the courts.

In the 1970s, “drunk beds”, which were low to the ground, were introduced to accommodate intoxicated prisoners. 🍻

Fun fact: the real-life Peaky Blinders gang were held here! 🕵️‍♂️🎩

Throwback to this chilling explore from 2022! 👻 

It was seriously eerie here, with several empty caskets (including one for a baby), an embalming room filled with chemicals and cremains, and an office strewn with discarded funeral records. 

The real highlight was the Cadillac hearse, complete with a baby pink casket, decaying on the drive – total Silent Hill vibes! 🩷🖤 

Dubbed online as the 'funeral home of horrors' because the last owner reportedly saw the dead coming back to life and warned her staff not to return – then she was never seen again! 

It’s actually a much less exciting but very sad story. The funeral home closed around 2015 when she went into a nursing home suffering from dementia. It was later seized by the IRS for unpaid taxes and sat abandoned until it was cleared out in 2023. 

What a creepy explore!

New York, here I come! ✈️🇺🇸

Excited to jet off to the Big Apple today 🍎🌆, where I’ll be hunting for vintage neon signs and ghost signs – those charming old advertising murals painted on walls that tell stories of NYC’s vibrant past. The city is full of these hidden gems, so I’ve got a long list of spots to explore! 🏙️🎨

📸 Here’s a peek at some signage I captured in NYC last year.🗽

NYC, I’m coming for you! 🎉🚕

🎢 Not much fun to be had here nowadays! 😅

This abandoned chairlift from the old Fun Mountain Amusement Park in Gatlinburg, Tennessee, is now swallowed by nature. 🌳 🇺🇸

Opened in 1993 and closed in 2000 due to financial struggles, the park’s rides – including bumper boats, go-karts, a Ferris wheel, train rides, and mini golf – are long gone. 🎡

But these ghostly sky lift seats remain as a haunting reminder of the fun that once was.

If you like old houses with plenty of stuff left behind, you'll love this charming gem! 🏚️✨ 🇺🇸

Known online as the Car Collector’s House, there were once a few classic cars dotted around the property, but by the time I visited, only three remained. Car edits to come soon...

This beautiful home features a wraparound veranda and a unique layout, with rooms attached directly to the main living area instead of a central hallway. 🚗🏡

A calendar hanging in the kitchen from 2008 hints that it might have last been lived in around then. I was especially in love with the vintage Philco Predicta TV from the late 1950s – such a cool design! 📺💫

Hey everyone, sorry I haven’t been posting every day lately. It’s been a bit of a tricky month with some tough stuff to process. But I’ll be back to sharing daily soon.

Thanks so much for all your love and support – it really means the world. Peter x
