Wow! Looks just like the haunted-house ride at Alton towers!

As an amature, I'd suggest firstly; make sure the structure is sound and not about to come crashind down on you through wood-rot. If that's all ok, start at the top and work down. Sort out the roof and windows and make sure it's watertight then you can start work on the insides.

Not sure what that green gunk is, (alge?). Either a pressure washer or the good old fasioned bucket and scrubbing brush might do the trick on it. Might be worth getting a scaff set up so that you can wander about the walls safely.

Best of British to yer!
