A former social club that was used to film an iconic striptease scene for The Full Monty film has been abandoned and left to rot away.
Shiregreen Working Mens Club in Sheffield, South Yorkshire, opened its doors just over 100 years ago and was a popular attraction for local people.
In 1997, it featured in The Full Monty, after six unemployed steel workers came up with the plan to form a local striptease group in an attempt to transform their fortunes.
The film stars actors such as Robert Carlyle, Mark Addy, Paul Barber, Tom Wilkinson and Hugo Speer. The movie scene filmed at the social club became one of the most historical scenes in British film history.
But after urban explorer Kyle Urbex, from Leeds, visited the men's club, he found that the setting of the famous striptease is now gathering dust even though a sign reading "The Home Of The Full Monty" is still proudly displayed on the building.
The club closed its doors for good in 2019 after struggling financially and plans were made to demolish the building.
However, former barmaid Ann Bentley and her husband Roy, who ran the club during filming and for 15 more years, started a petition to get the plan to demolish the club rejected.
The petition raised 1,000 signatures, saving the club from demolition - but its ultimate fate lies with the current owners, Eyre Investments.
"After a tight squeeze through a very small gap I found myself in the toilets, navigating round my main focus was on the stage area and I couldn't help grabbing a picture of me on the Full Monty stage," said Kyle.
"I did however decide not to go for the Full Monty myself although I was tempted, walking round felt such a shame a historic place like this could fall into such a derelict state.
"Finding three pool tables, a few old chairs and a smashed up bar area, my explore was done.
"I did however cut my jeans on my bum on the way out, requiring me to change into my shorts for my classic outside shot.
"I'd never seen this place documented and with it playing such a massive part in British film History it could be a crying shame to watch it rot away before at least somebody bringing back some nostalgia in the form of pictures.
"I'm happy to be that person."
