  Spooky scene and i like the vanishing point in the shot.
  I think a mono might work as the dull tones might be better in BW. The only thing that niggles is that the shot is not fully balanced. More interest on the left of the frame. I would also have tried to include the full plant plot on the right, so thats it not chopped.

  Lovely shot. Only advice I’d give is to have stood a step or two to the right, so as to have the same amount of buildings on each side – it evens out the geometry of the shot. You’ll just have to go back!

  Thanks for the pointers, I hadn’t really noticed that the shot was favouring the left side!
  I did try a B&W shot to try and exaggerate the spookiness but i preferred this one by far!

  Thanks for the pointers :)
