I did a course there in 1990, the scheme was ran by Interchurch Skill Training, the different courses were based in the old Junior House segment of the building, good setting for a horror story me thinks. Many thanks to Peace Drone for making the video.
@@PeaceDroneAerialVideo I was told about some of it's history, the building I was in had 3 storeys, the top section was were the solid wood cubicles were to house the young 11-15 year old boys. At the time I was there they were in the process of stripping all the solid wood paneled walls out. The gardens at the back, were used allegedly, for more evil purposes than just growing flowers and vegetables, in the far distant past. I was also told there was a secret tunnel between Ushaw Seminary and Durham Cathedral .
@@PeaceDroneAerialVideo Plenty of ancient mine workings to inter link, when I was on that scheme, the old bus that brought all the YTS and ETs to that building used to chug up that driveway, on a cold misty winters morning it looked more like The Hammer House Of Horror. The manager of Skill Training, a Mr Morissey, used to walk around the Junior House with his two Alsatian dogs looking more like a commandant from a prison camp.
LOOKS AN AMAZING PLACE
It is amazing. Thanks for watching ✌🏼
Nice flying :)
Thanks for the visit
