The rear steps, the fire damaged ones on the urban explorer site, used to be used to get equipment up to the function rooms and ballroom. Most people never knew they existed but access was much easier that way than the main stone steps at the front.
The flats are only where lardy's nightclub was,not sure what the old school is nowadays I think they had a fire and its being renovated.

As for the con club,the fire damaged stairs are very hazardous (as is much of the inside due to arson attacks) the ballroom still has its wonderful ceiling but for how long is anyone's guess.
