boiler house

Introduction After seeing @TalkingMask's fantastic film images of this place, I wanted to check it out for myself as I quite like these large empty industrial spaces. Visited with @JakeV50 on a recent trip to the Sheffield area. Not to be confused with the other Record Tools site closer to the...

Introduction I’ve been to Wales many times and never got round to doing this one, even though I have wanted to see it since I first visited the area back in 2020. Finally decided to pull my finger out and do it. Visited on a recent trip to North Wales with @JakeV50. Information & History Image...

Introduction This is one of those large-scale ‘classic’ UK sites that I have always wanted to tick off the list and have always had in the back of my head, a bit like how Fletcher’s and RAE Bedford were for me. The main draw for me was the engine room with the large engines in situ, but was...

Figured I’d do a report as filling an old thread with new photos isn’t exactly worthwhile It was nice to get back here again after so long but it’s sad to see the state of the whole place, especially recognising little bits in the rubble here and there. Going through the whole place is fairly...

Introduction One evening I was scanning Google satellite imagery of the Norwich area, not even to find places to visit, I was just bored. Then I came across all of these derelict greenhouses. I didn’t take too much notice until I saw some old brick chimneys which caught my attention. I met up...

Introduction First of all, I’d like to say thanks to admin for organising such a great meet last Saturday. I enjoyed it from start to finish, met some great people, and had some excellent conversations. The after-party was unexpected and bloody brilliant. As me and Jake were already going to...

Introduction Me and @Wastelandr were keen to meet up for the first time as we have spoken quite a bit and we are both not a million miles away from each other, Wastelandr suggested taking a look at this factory which has been posted previously on here by Speed, he mentioned a factory in Sudbury...

Made a quick visit to this coming home from Scotland. Surprisingly considering the hospital has been gone for ages this old boiler house still sits in the woods. It's nice to see the two Lancashire boilers sitting there untouched. It was quite an enjoyable relaxed visit. The hospital which...

Started to write this when i was in self isolation, i got bored :thumb I have often wondered what this place looked like inside. It always looked abandoned but always seemed to have cars parked outside it. I first noticed it back in 2012 , when i was visiting The Mortuary, which as it happens...

Nice little explore this one, after receiving the pin of another explorer I decided to venture out to see what it was like, although a small building, I really enjoyed it, its been a while since I've done anything closed to Industrial so was nice to wipe a bit of the Industrial urbex rust off. I...

Came across this place after a tip off of a building lying amongst some trees near Morpeth. Wasnt really expecting much tbh found the building after a bit of searching. It didnt look too exciting from the outside though when i finally got in and discovered an old boiler house not in great...

I've been sitting on these pics for a while. Visited with prettyvacant71 on our way back from Scotland in June. The original plan was a revisit to Bootham Park so I could show her around, but that didn't happen as there was no way in and security were on us quickly. Fletchers was suggested so...

History The foundation stone for Oamaru’s former hospital (known locally as ‘the hospital on the hill’) was laid by Deborah Shrimski (the wife of Samuel Shrimski, who was himself a reputable businessman) on 2nd April 1872. All of the shops in the town were closed for the entire day to...

I notice a comment on here about these hospitals, so decided to check the current situation. This was one of 2 sites done recently, wasnt expecting either so please with the result. This was the boiler house for Cherry Knowles Hospital, which opened in the 1940s and closed in 2013...

Intro Very empty and it smelt quite bad... Still, I'll post this here with a bit of history. Like I said in a previous post, the place as once quite big and most buildings still remain including this one. The big three main front white buildings are in use at the bottom floor but the rest is...
