circumstance? or dodgy?

prospects school which is in pentre saeson offers mechanics on the curriculem - david evans owns legacy service station (rhos) ltd - maintenance and repair of motor vehicles.
they also offer horse riding - ken white has 10 - 15 horses on the 50 acres attached to bryn alyn.

dodgy as hell!

prospects house the children across wrexham in 10 houses, a total of 27 beds.
so thats 2-3 kids per house. that to me sounds like unvetted foster parents.

I went back to Bryn Alyn Hall on Saturday 20th April and saw a single storey building in the process of being renovated.

My recollection of this building is that it contained the woodwork room and another couple of classrooms.
As we walked around the outside of the building, I could see paperwork in the windows, both loose sheets and files/folders.

The building looked as though it had been out of use since Bryn Alyn shut in 1997.
As we walked further across the driveway and round towards what is signposted as "Alyn Lodge" I noticed a distinct lack of horse.
What had been 10-15 horses in November was down to a meager 2, despite the warm weather.
Further round towards the footpath down to Wilderness, I noticed a lot of fencing was being replaced and a huge bonfire had been built, burned and was again in construction, as wheelbarrows of rubble and paperwork from the building were being dragged across the drainage ditches.

Update 16th November 2013: 
Following a visit to Bryn Alyn by another victim, there are no longer any horses on the property.
Kenneth J White has altered his residential address and is no longer registered as living in Bryn Alyn Hall. Instead he is registered at:

I will also point out here that at no time is Paul Eccles mentioned in Waterhouse in relation to the operation of a Children's Home, despite other Heads and Deputies being mentioned throughout.
Nor does Waterhouse include most of the people interviewed by HTV for the Wales This Week documentary
