Hey everyone, I used to go exploring a lot but had a pretty bad accident and now I am recovered I want to get back out there! One of my favourite places I have explored were the tunnels underneath Beacon Hill Fort but I think I last went there about 8 years ago. Has anyone been recently? Just...

I've been looking into the history of Shoeburyness, and heard the story/myth about the RED BRICK HOUSE at the end of Elm rd. The story goes that there was a tunnel that lead down from Red Brick House down to the shore and it was either used for smuggling in things, another story is that there is...

First Report here! This has already been covered many times on 28dl. However it is still a proper explore and was fun to see. It is, as said before; heavily vandalized and there is a looming feeling that demolition is near. History of this site: There is a lot of confusing history around the...

My first report, feedback is welcome of course. The Brantham Factories have somewhat of a legendary status in the area, very popular for exploring even as a one off. The factories were built in 1887 and were abandoned in 2007. The company named "BX Plastics" manufactured, you guessed it...

I found this old place in Brantham/Manningtree and I think it could be a chemical factory but I'm not too sure. The explore is pretty easy all things considered, everything is open and only a few of the rooms are blocked up from industrial junk. Although most of the rooms have multiple entrances...

A Brief Intro This going to be a relatively short report since well. It's only a small thing, but the significance of it is somewhat interesting. I found myself one night after work aimlessly flying across google maps in search of something interesting, being that a place to check out or a...

Hi guys It’s not very well known that there is an abandoned nightclub on the 4th floor of the mercury mall in Romford, Essex. It closed in 1999 and doesn’t seem to have been flicked since. has anyone on here ever managed to get in? I’ve heard of people getting in there but it’s usually short...

Braintree College of Further Education (Braintree Campus) Have struggled to find particularly much about this place online. It was originally an independently controlled institution, but became part of the Colchester Institute after merging in February 2010. Part of the site is still live as...

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. Does anybody know of any in/around the London/Essex/Brighton area, as my group and I don't really have the time or facilities to travel too far. Thanks!!

I'm 17 from Essex, I have explored a few abandoned places before (like H.M.S Ganges by Harwich docks) but mostly prefer rooftopping and climbing high stuff. I have rooftopped chelmsford, ipswich, colchester and London - a few major tall buildings but mostly were all lesser structures. I have...

Have known about this place for a while but where it's pretty much on my door step have always just thought "I'll go there another time". An artical came out recently about this location so I thought I should go asap to avoid the tour busses and I'm glad I did. When we arrived there was a group...
