Urbex: The Pigeon Church, Belgium – March 2017
The Pigeon Church, a small abandoned church in Belgium. Unassuming from the outside, this Church was actually quite photogenic inside albeit completely full of pigeon poo!
Urbex: Château Pink Panther, Belgium – March 2017
Château Pink Panther, as this place became known, was a fair-sized Château which had undergone some modernisation but also retained some of the original features.

Urbex: Villa Heil, Belgium – March 2017
This might be the last report from the abandoned Villa Heil… This quite large attractive detached house in Belgium was demolished just days after these photos were taken. In fact, during our visit when shooting the basement rooms just before we were planning to leave someone came into the building walking around the ground floor…
Urbex: The Butchers House, Belgium – March 2017
The abandoned Butchers House in Belgium turned out to be one of the more interesting residential explores that I have done to date.

Urbex: Maison Gustaaf, Belgium – May 2015
Maison Gustaaf is another reasonably sized detached farm house which lays empty in Belgium.
