I can't help thinking the place looks more Enchanted abandoned then it did when is was opened to the public. One can only hope it will always be just this way and not me disturbed by a developer.

Seems what has saved it from complete demolition is that it is sitting down in a gully that would be hard to do anything with accept use as park land or water shed.

I can almost see the local land spirits using this as a grand ball room to gather for feasts and merry making.

I remember this passageway as a kid, 40 plus years ago. It was creepy then. These photos bring back memorie of the past and create new ones.

HAve you ever seen "Spirited Away" ? It was about an abandoned amusement park inhabited by the land spirits, or what the old Norse called Landvættir . These photos evoke that sense that the forest land spirits have taken over this forgotten place. Really beautiful.
