If you want to see Billy Banks,I suggest you go asap,as we did it today and the dozers have started clearing the shrubs in readyness for demo in April 2012
Is this actually abandoned, or did you manage to snap some pics of this estate whilst the residents were up the job centre, to see what enviroment they live in?
I used to live opposite this dump. One night a guy emerged from the estate with a baseball bat,destroyed the phone box and then started smashing car windscreens as he made his way up Arcot St - now THAT was YouTube-able! I like the music track although i would love to try Ghost Town by The Special to give it the desolate atmosphere.
Thanks for uploading this place is awesome. I really wanted to look inside but too scared haha how did you get in? You know some people are still living there round the side. I think they are knocking it down now. It's a shame, it's eerily beautiful.
@lioxoda just walk around the fence down the side lane dude haha ive been down there a couple times taking photos and shit, its pretty eerie. beware the squatters, i think theyre living in some of the apartments
My girlfiends mat elived there. They were okay on the inside and the view over the city was cool at night. Is that High Contrast on the music? He's from Penarth...
That place is disgusting. i live in sully but i go to the secondary school in penarth. so i know acxactly where it is and its horibble do a thumbs up if you agree!
I think the people who still live there are those who own their flats under the right to buy scheme. I heard they were holding out for a decent buyout from the council, don't know if that's true or not. My nan lived here in the '70s, it was a nice place back then before they moved all the problem families in. can't believe its not full of squatters
We went for a look up there tonight, your right it's surreal, amongst all those burnt out rotting flats there are 4 flats that are still occupied by residents!, How can they live like this?, it scared the crap out of us walking around in the dark.
