The Bells Summer 2018

Recently Calypso and I revisited an old spot while in the Newport area. I've covered this location a couple times before, but check out these recent shots of The Bells:

A couple of winters ago.

Winter 2017, less graffiti.

The Bells Again

Apologies for the set; it was too cold to take a good picture. (First post on this location)

Back to the Stables

If you haven't seen our post on these abandoned stables yet, check this out.

Today, Calypso and I returned to the Newport abandoned stables (also known as the Bells) with our friend who I will call Cleopatra. This time, I finally got up to the second floor and found it to be delightfully more interesting than the first floor. It was overgrown, mossy, and filled with all kinds of wreckage. It also contained more interesting and well-preserved graffiti. I also would have liked to get to the roof, but was not able to.

I also was able to crawl into the very tight crawlspace underneath the stables, which I've commented on previously. It was mostly filled up, but the tiny area with a little space to breathe was flooded. The whole thing was very small and I only got a couple feet in, but I believe what I crawled into used to be the entrance and stairway down to a cellar, which is now completely sealed up.

You can see a fireplace here.

Some heavy editing on this one.

The extent of the crawlspace, AKA "Wonderland"

Found in the nearby observational tower. This is the third abandoned site at which I've seen one of these guys, and I'm beginning to think there's a conspiracy.
