The White House - Pontefract - January 2011 (something different)

[dannyday58218195]

Hi everyone - theres already reports of this place but i thought id go for a different angle - whilst there i had my 100mm macro and a nice big torch with me - upstairs on the 2nd floor i found loads of slides and negatives - so stuck them under my torch and snapped away - then back home "developed" them in adobe lightroom :P just thought this is a little different!


not sure exactly where this was taken but googling the number plate i found the car was registered in leeds between 1988 and 1989... not familiar with leeds though


i googled the hotel behind and although its not called "the hospitality inn" anymore i still got the address! this was taken on coventry street, london!


and theres a street view shot where you can see the resemblance :P


some photos are very water damaged so alot of colour and detail lost


the majority were of this wedding...


the after party?


the front door of the white house?


i swear this was taken in the kitchen it looks very familiar!

Hope you enjoyed looking!

Excellent, photos or negs found are always gold dust.

The wedding looks like a meeting of the ugly convention.

id put up an article in the local rag appealing for the owners to come forward

Bottom photo is well good Urbex tilt!

I found some slides from 1890s, being meaning to do something with them instead of having them sat on top of the fridge, most are faded but a few are mint. Might see if i can do the same!
