faversham

Having seen a few reports on this one and loving a good bit of disused rail infrastructure, i knew i just had to go and check this one out for myself. History Faversham initially being a terminus ensured that locomotive facilities were provided here from the outset. The first engine shed was a...

Me and man gone wrong had a day exploring in Kent. This was the last visit of the day to these former engines sheds. I had seen a report on this pop up a few months ago and really like the look of it. Having a love for old railways sheds and railway infrastructure in general. We found an away...

History The very fact that Faversham was initially a terminus ensured that locomotive facilities were provided here from the outset. The first engine shed was a small, two-track dead-end affair, positioned beside the ''up'' line, just beyond the level crossing to the immediate west of the...

History: In the 1860s, Canterbury's water supply was drawn from a variety of sources, such as the River Stour and local wells. However, without a filtration system, the water was deemed hazardous and unfit for human use, and could only be used for cleaning purposes. Subsequently, by 1870 a...

Brief history: The airfield was a WW1 grass airfield which was only in use between 1917 and 1919 and was created to combat the threat of German Gotha bomber and Zeppelin attacks on Kent and London. It was classed as a Home Defence airfield and was manned by 112 Squadron RFC. Once the war ended...

As I didn't go out this week, here is a report from a few months ago. St. Bartholomews church. Not my usual derp, but I like a nice bit of architecture. A tiny gem, hidden in the country side of Faversham. This tiny church is abandoned but locals seem to clean it and attend to the grounds...

I don't know much about this site, only that its abandoned. It was tough to get into, I had the options of running across the railway, jumping off the bridge, or abseiling down the side which I did in the end. It was a risk with the railway security very close but it was very much worth it...

Visited with Shadow, Frosty and Muffie. This place has been in my mind for years, but it's only recently since moving to Faversham that I went and checked it out, and today being snowbound a local explore was called for. I expected the remaining buildings to be totally stripped, which they...

These sheds opened in 1846 and were closed in 1958 and have been left abandoned ever since, grade 2 listed but in really terrible condition. The second of the sheds has a huge crack in the lintel and probably won't be around much longer. This isn't really a huge site; but it has its own...

Hi Guys any of you who have been members of Broken Britain might have already seen this report. After our explore of the other two carriage sheds near the station we decided to drive to this shed, expecting only to be able to take exterior pics. We were then given permission to go inside. The...

After a very successful previous visit it was decided to return to these beautiful old loco sheds and test out some of photographic skills some of you guys had passed onto us. As well as me and my exploring partner in crime Trench, we were also accompanied by KUE members The Daddy and new guy...

Not the most inspiring of places, but it's quite remarkable because of how quickly it got trashed. It closed in june that year, and by ocotber it was royally trashed. It's now been flattened and the land is still for sale. The weird thing about this place was remembering it from...
