Firing Range Shelter, Bristol

[petzl]

Mid April 2009, I finally found a way in to the firing range. This site is situated in the old railway tunnels in Bristol. I've been waiting a good ten years to get in to this one. This is a simple and site easy to walk round. Though boots are a must as it has junkie history. In the Tunnel has been built a shed that spans most of the tunnel. Up in the roof is a large ventilation duct.I know it was used as a bunker during the war as was Clifton Rock Railway. At the back of the firing range is a fuse board. This was easy to work out so we had lights on all the way through the tunnel. I have been back to this one a few times. It has a real nice atmosphere :)


Nice place to sit and chat
