Derelict sites

Chochese · 2011-04-07 09:41:24

Is there any places in Waterford that are along the ames lines of dereliction as the Árd Rí hotel site? I'm looking for a location for a photography/video thingy and the hotel is a bit inaccessable and out of the way.

Nice one, cheers lads.

From looking at the previous thread, the Tannery and Waterford Crystal could look like viable alternatives.

Any more suggestions appreciated.

You might find a few ideas here:

Bit of advice though - if you're going into places like these, best to go early mornings (sunrise is best) and on the weekend. That way the junkies and local busy-bodies are still in bed
