The explorer, who posts pictures of his visits under the name Lost Places and Forgotten Faces, has visited abandoned schools, mills, houses, farms, libraries and fairgrounds across Yorkshire and has shared some of his favourites from the city of Leeds.
He said: “Leeds is one of my favourite cities in the UK to explore. The city has gone through major development over the last few years so finding abandoned places can be difficult, but I love a challenge.
"If you search hard enough, you can still find old, derelict and creepy buildings to explore before they are eventually demolished.”
Check out some of the sites he’s visited in our gallery below:
