Northern IrelandBorstalSpread the loveHM Borstal – opened in 1956 as young offenders institute for up to 130 males (aged 10-17), who were sentenced to a period of borstal training. Closed in 1980, used as detention centre until 2003. Called by local communities as “the bad boys home”.BorstalFinally Borstal video is online.Borstal is unaccessible now, so glad we had a chance to see it with Unseen Decay – N.I. Urbex Sad, as it could be used for youths in the area (gym is in good condition) and several rooms could also be used too as they are not damaged. A bit of paint, clean up and could benefit local area.Posted by LoveUrbex.com on Monday, 30 September 2019
