This was back a few months ago, totally forgot I hadn't done a report on it

 

Just an update to the Mother Country to let you know that over the last year I have converted a heap of Cave Clan radio interviews as well as the 2017 ABC Cave Clan documentary. The radio interviews might be a bit slow unless you have a connection to The Cave Clan or you're interested in Australian urbex history, but they can give you something to listen to as you fall asleep at night

I've added random footage to the radio interviews.

The ABC documentary is probably the best thing we've done.

There's also a few Urbex clips that are not Cave Clan related that people seem to find interesting.

I’ve also made a combined version of the ABC docco that has the credits cut out (other the first & end credits of the series) so it’s a bit easier to watch if you have a spare half an hour.

Have a look at the YouTube page here > The CaveClanMedia

I'm not trying to encourage people in the scene to engage with the media. Most of our stuff was done when there was no urbex or internet and we were trying to build the scene. The ABC documentaries (5 x 7 min episodes) reveal a different side to the Cave Clan and don't reveal anything in regards to actual exploring.
If only one of you take a look then my job here is done

 

 

Episode 1.

 

The Shard

Something a bit different from me today. Actually using the video report tab unironically.

Made this short documentary about Adam Lockwood's illegal Shard climb in 2022 for my final film for my Masters at Uni:

It features the entire unseen journey leading up to pulling a stunt like this, as well as the full climb from start to finish. As much as I think the Manchester lot have their opinions on Adam's Urbex persona, you simply can't deny the extremity of doing what he did, aware of the consequences.

Give it a watch if you'd like, I think from an Urbex perspective, a lot of you will find it interesting.

 

Me and Angelo will explore the Royal Air Force Base / airfield , known as RAF Krendi Airfield, that housed its Operations, Administrative and Signals offices under ground during World War 2 situated in Qrendi Malta. The station was officially inaugurated in 1941 as a diversion airstrip for the main operating bases such as nearby R. A. F. Luqa. Other diversion airstrips similar in function to Krendi were located at R. A. F. Safi and on Malta's second island of Gozo. Later, in November 1942, the British began basing fighter squadrons at Krendi. These remained until late 1943. After the war, the airfield was used as a tracking station and vehicle park, before falling into disuse. Caution : This place is not a public and in order to visit you need a special permission from the San Niklaw Farm (79289641) who are currently managing the area. Special thanks to Angelo Bilocca who made the necessary arrangements to go over there, film it and share it with you all. Badge from RAF Heraldry Trust | RAF Heraldry Trust PLease like and subscribe

We shot this a few weeks ago.

 

Made this one this week of an abandoned school camp in Gippsland.

 

 

Goyt Colliery, also known as Goyt’s Moss Colliery, was a significant coal mining site near Buxton in Derbyshire’s Peak District.
Situated on the high moorlands west of Buxton, this colliery was part of a network of small-scale mines that operated from the 17th century until the early 20th century.

The colliery was located near Burbage and Goyt’s Moss, just south of the River Wye and close to the Old Macclesfield Road.

Today, the area is a quiet stretch of moorland, but in its heyday, it was a bustling industrial site with coal being transported via canal boats and loaded onto railway wagons and horse-drawn carts. Coal extraction in the Goyt Valley began as early as the late 17th century, primarily to supply fuel for lime burning.
The mines were modest in scale, with activity peaking between 1780 and 1880. Coal was extracted using drift mining techniques, where horizontal tunnels were driven into the hillside.

The Goyt Colliery ceased operations in 1898, with other nearby coal workings continuing until 1919.

Myself & Martin recently explored the area, that provided Culverts, Kilns, Sluice's, railway remains & Shafts in the video link attached -
