Question - Anyone know what's up with the Hulme Hippodrome?

[pebbler]

There haven't been any recent reports on the place. I know there is construction being done on the inside, but has anyone been recently and know if it's still worth checking out?

It's used as a church by the local community.

Only a small annexe is used as a church ?

That's correct and don't forget that bit near the bar area

It's owned by a company in London who don't seem to care much! There is the occasional walk around tour but it takes forever to get a reply. I feel like the only one who went in when the lights were off, thank God I had my LED.s.
People should bear in mind that as well as all the decor being renewed, the holes in the roof being patched up, they would also have to install a new sound and lighting system to make it a venue again. And Then recoup the money spent!
There is a Facebook page to keep up to date.

Its not owned by a london based company.. Not what the squatters and council told me on enquires of the place.

 

[albino-jay]

dont listen to the squatters.

They were telling me the basement was used to lock up swapped babies trafficed from kenya. And that the religious books couldnt be recycled because ‘you cant recycle bad energy man’

Also this thread is over a year old. Chill out.

Yeah i meant the locking of new born babies down in that rank damp as bollocks cellar. If seen pictures of it looking like that for years.
