Try as I might, I cannot seem to find anything in the way of history on this place, however it has been there for as long as Ive been alive so all I can surmise is that its been around for a long time.
First noticed this place had closed a year back, but electricity being on and alarms being in use stopped me from venturing further. A few months on, I wish Id got there sooner, as it really is being exposed to both the elements and the local metal thieves.
Visited on a very wintery morning and the fact it is deteriorating rapidly was only too obvious as the time elapsing from when we entered to when we left showed an even greater extent of water damage... as the water damage from the roof was fairly pouring in, in just a space of a couple of hours.
The club is currently up for auction For Sale By Auction: Southwick Social Club, Church Bank, Southwick, Sunderland, SR5 2LN
I wish the "bidder" the best of luck... they certainly will need it.
All in all, an interesting morning's mooch. Visited with Stranton.
