Yesterday’s explore and one of the coolest ones to date, the overflow tunnel for the waterworks near the Brecon Mountain Railway.
Due to not knowing what the tunnel is actually called and countless hours of researching tunnels and history of welsh tunnels on google, there is not much history...
A recent adventure - The Morlais Tunnel, also commonly known as Morlais Junction or The Miler.
I have walked The Miler previously, when I was around 16 years of age when myself and my friends used it as a shortcut when we were late home - although, it never seemed as eery back then.

Hi all!
So just getting into the whole urbex scene fairly recently and as a film fanatic would love to see some abandoned theatres/cinemas.

The explore
This was a fun one for sure. After doing a bit of research on sites in Edinburgh I set off, this being the only one I could get into. I was surprised by the fact nobody had explored it before considering it was a pretty big one and had been lying empty for a while. It was an...
Wasn't sure if this one was worthy of a report so apologies if not. I had intended to go to the nearby closed police station however that proved too difficult so I settled on this instead. It was built in 1911 and is being demolished soon.

My first report here. I had heard about a big old school that had shut down in the NE and I had to give it a visit. Unfortunately most of it was stripped out ready for renovation. I was hoping for ghosts but the only thing that spooked me were the horrible little motion sensors which were...
