Very brief history - The derby and Hartley buildings located on the Liverpool university campus previously used for engineering,biology and archeology all of which have been moved out between 2005 - 2010.
The explore - this is a location I have previously explored a couple of times using the same entrance which hasn’t yet failed,I haven’t previously taken pictures of this explore as I’ve always visited at night but this time in the summer there was still a bit of sunlight left when we arrived so I thought I get a few snaps.
We explored this location for a couple of hours gaining access quite easy although there is active security on site which are doing regular patrols which we had to avoid, there has been quite a bit of stuff moved out but surprisingly not as much damage as you’d expect to find in such a popular well known location.
As we were ending the explore we were inside the building near the main entrance when we heard someone punching in the code for the front door so we quickly hid behind a staircase and saw the security come in go back out then jump back through the door a few seconds later,we suspected he must have seen one of our torches through the window so we decided to make our exit.
We made it out and got to the car which was parked only around a couple of corners but before we had chance to drove away the security car drove up to us blocking us in.
He gave us the usual ‘we could have You arrested if we wanted to you know’ all of which we’ve heard all before but we just spoke to him respectfully and he seemed alright after a few minutes and told us there planning on refurbishing the buildings soon.
