This footage shot by an urban explorer reveals a football stadium that was abandoned five years ago following heavy flooding. Eerie footage posted by vlogger Forgotten Places NI [Northern Ireland] shows the overgrown ground that looks like something from a ghost town. The stadium used to be host to the football club Institute F.C. in the village of Drumahoe, Londonderry. In 2017 the area was subject to floods, which left parts of the ground under seven feet of water. The flooded pitch was left with a layer of sediment and even trees were reported to have washed into the ground. The club was forced to abandon the stadium and move to Brandywell Stadium, leaving the old ground to the Japanese knotweed. Since then it has been left overgrown and forgotten. Forgotten Places said: "There are very few stadiums lying derelict. So the chance to explore one is very rare. "In five years of urban exploration, it's the first time I've had the pleasure of documenting such a place. "The back story, explained in the TikTok video of how it flooded in 2017 and then the Japanese Knotwood infestation makes the story even more interesting." The ground is set to be demolished after years of abandonment and neglect, with locals citing it as the end of an era.
