equipment

Hey there! Today I introduced a good friend of mine to the world of urbex, starting off with a wander around Bailey Mill. Compared to my last visit, a few more rooms were open, so I was thrilled to have a proper nosey. My friend has a particular interest in textiles and old tools, so I thought a...

First visit to here was in a Storm so needed to return in safer conditions. Ocetel Bromine works ceased operation in 2004. Its been covered many times on here. They used to extract bromine from seawater using huge equipment across the site. And believe this stopped when it was found to be no...

Could you guys rate the setup and please let me know if there is something I need or that I'm forgetting please This is what I take with me whenever I'm going out exploring. It's important I carry the right stuff so that I can ensure the trip goes to plan. Not shown in the picture but I...

I think I've come across an access point for what could well be a Victorian stream culvert beneath Boscombe and Springbourne in Bournemouth, and I'm wondering how I can go about lifting the manhole covers for a recce.

What random but essential piece of kit do you have and take exploring?

Hi All It's been some time since my last explore and I'm starting to set my sights on harder to access places and I'm looking for advice on kit. I've got decent clothes and camera gear but i need some reccomendations on torches and ladders. For the former, I'm looking for something i can mount...

Having attended this location on a few occasions over the years, I'm surprised there is very little coverage of this site. Detail on the location is limited but I managed to find a little, and also found a report by another explorer who named it as Lydden Bunkers! Following on from an earlier...

Hi everyone! This question might be a bit weird but anyway. So i am really new to urban exploring. I have visited abandoned buildings a few times before but i am now really starting to get into the hobby. I have figured out most of the gear i need but i still wonder what kind of clothing i...

Hi all I am very new to this and I am going to start exploring area in devon where i know there are old derelict buildings. The question is i have no idea where to start to buying equipment. I know the basics, torch good footwear and camera. But what kind of camera would i need and is there...

One from a while back, that I haven't got around to posting until now. The Defence Medical Equipment Depot (DMED for short) at Ludgershall in Wiltshire was part of the Defence Logistics Organisation, and it provided the armed forces with medical equipment and other supplies both on home soil...

Another little nugget from the back catalogue. This is the only time I've explored somewhere in Oldham and not run into a gaggle of drunk 14 year olds or had a building set on fire whilst we were in the site. After a brief nose from the roads outside we saw the access staring us quite literally...
