Terrys Of York October 2013 [posted 2015]

While browsing flickr I came across shots of what looked like a large manor house with a stunning staircase. I new they explored with a different forum regular. So I checked it out and luckily it was posted on there. Terrys? I thought it was empty. I wasn't sure if the post was a bum steer the skylight is not visible on google earth. I took a punt and off I went at 3am. Not planned that well access was quite easy and I was bloody early, hanging around for the sun to rise. Nice views from the roof and clock tower though.

The large art deco site opened in 1926 and made great chocolate until 2005 when it finally stopped production at the cost of around 300 jobs.
