Description
Inside the Horse and Jockey Pub is a mess, the roof has gone, the floors have gone, all that remains is a few pipes from the old gas lighting and a lot of rubble. The front door was open and I briefly contemplated going inside, but then I saw this through the window and decided it’s not a place to go and play in.
Amongst the debris and intense fire damage is a surprising scene of two pristine looking fireplaces. They stand out clearly against the rest of the mess. They aren’t tarnished, covered in soot or damaged at all. This one isn’t resting on anything solid, it’s balanced on the top of the remains of the chimney. It just looks so out of place and new looking. It’s almost ironic if it weren’t for the fact you’d expect a fireplace to be fire proof.
