free survey, building needed

Options
Hi, as part of my degree i have to find a property that has more then one defect, i.e. cracking, damp, subsidence etc..

im looking for a small to medium sized building, e.g chapel/church, village hall, or any commercial property.

As part of the Coursework i will carry out a condition survey, suggest reasons why the defects have occurred, suggest improvement techniques and also the second part of the coursework is to carry out a measured survey and draw up plans for a possible reuse/conversion of the building.

The copy of the plans will be in CAD format and quite professional looking and a copy can be yours.

if anyone has any suggestions or does anyone know of a building that is in a bad condition please state,

im willing to travel between Newport - Bridgend and Barry upto Merthyr, including Cardiff

    An ex-school (village primary, stone-built, converted 1960s) in SW France would be a bit far, then? (Cheap flights to Toulouse, Bergerac, Bordeaux ...) ;):):D

    If you don't get any takers here you could try http://www.periodproperty.co.uk pretty much everyone on there has a house with multiple defects. :-)
    When I had my loft converted back into a loft, the neighbours came around and scoffed, and called me retro.
