    Report - Leeder & Sons Ltd Grain Mill & Granary - Long Stratton, Norfolk - March 2020

    Well, there's no place more self-isolating than an abandoned granary miles from civilisation, so with that excuse ready to use on any military checkpoints and/or Gestapo patrols, today I ventured off into the Norfolk countryside on this (perhaps sarcastically) beautiful March afternoon. I'd...

    Report - Sharpness Grain Silo, Berkeley - Aug 2015

    Visited with Clebby & Huey. Much thanks to Clebby for hinting at checking this out after a successful explore previously that day. We didn't really have a plan but walked up to it like we owned it. Despite walking past two guys in a cherry picker dismantling a metal overhang attached to the...

    Report - Sharpness Dock Grain Silo, Gloucestershire - August 2015

    Sharpness Dock Grain Silo, Gloucestershire. At the risk of sounding conceited, and please believe me when I say that isn't my intention, why the hell aren't people out there cracking their local sites? Since last summer we've posted several new and interesting places from Gloucestershire -...

    Report - Water Eaton Grain Silo, Oxford - July 13

    This was a random stop-off on a Sunday morning after Bitca and I had failed attempt at Berkyn Manor earlier (the bulls were sleepy, but the fencing was anchored hard into the ground, lots of razor wire at the top and bottom of the fencing and razor wire bundled into the ground-floor windows) so...

    Report - Water Eaton, Grain Silo, Oxford!! January 2013. First Successful Explore!

    Hey guys so this is my first post, done with a non member. Attempted another location previous to this one but it was a no go. I was not left wanting after exploring this site twice in a day, first visit was just a scouting mission, finding ways in and out all that Jazz! Hence the day light...

    Report - Kidlington/Water Eaton Grain Silo, Oxfordshire, January 2013

    Water Eaton is a small hamlet just North of Oxford and adjacent to the A34. A large grain silo was built there in 1940 as a WW2 strategic silo between Kidlington and Oxford. The Water Eaton Grain Silo was used up until the 1980s and has remained derelict since then. It is a large building that...

    Report - Water Eaton Grain Silo (Night Visit), Oxfordshire - October 2012

    After a non invasive mooch around Carmel College, which was more a wander round than Urban Exploration - me and a few non members decided it was time to try a proper site. A friend mentioned a large strange structure by the A34, so we set off with no idea it was one of the more visited sites in...

    Report - Water Eaton Grain Silo - Oxfordshire - March 2012

Its been done on here a fair few times now but i thought i would put the history anyway. Hope you...

    Report - Water Eaton Grain Silo, Oxfordshire, October 2011.

    I accept this is not a new place to be explored at all, but it was my first explore, done spontaneously. A friend and I went at the crack of dawn and watched the sunrise from the roof, the view is wonderful. After 30 years of disuse, there's a hell of a lot of pigeon poop and graffiti! To my...

    Report - Water Eaton Grain Silo roof, Oxfordshire Jan 2011

    Visited with Landie and my friend Emma on same day as Ford Foundry visit. I'd already been here a few days ago with Woody Woodland and Mookie but I didn't have a camera that night because I didn't expect to be going here. Didn't join in with the cranes 'cause it was too late and I needed to get...

    Report - Water Eaton Grain Silo, Oxford (Night visit) - Jan '11

    After visiting this place in the snow in December all on my lonesome myself, TBM and theWoodland headed off for a night of japery around Oxford, first stop was the pub followed by a ride to the monolithic grain silo, and I saw some new stuff as we climbed all the way down the ladders at the side...

    Report - Water Eaton Grain Silo, Oxford (snow visit) - Dec '10

    Last night I had an itch to get some 'different' shots of the snow across Oxford so decided to tackle the looming behemoth that is the Water Eaton Grain Silo solo during the early morning hours. After getting 3 hours sleep I awoke and was out the house by 6.45am, arriving at the silo by 7.30...

    Report - Kidlington Grain Silo :: October 2010

    Every time I drove to Birmingham I always used to see this building by the side of the A34 but never had the time to explore....until now. Kinger and I were driving back from the 28DL 5th Birthday Bash hungover to hell and in need of fresh air and a walk...so an old, damp building with plenty...

    Report - Stanley Dock & Grain Silo - Liverpool - June 10

    After almost 7 months of exploring almost everything within a 40 mile radius with only Leaf1471's camera doing the documenting , I decided it was time to buy myself a shiny new camera and start doing something other than stand around and complain about the cold :D This was my first explore...

    Report - Poland - Grain Silo, Gdansk, Poland, JUN 2009

    No history on that one. I was looking for a bunker I'd read about on the internet and next to it I found a huge abandoned grain silo. Later I couldn't find any info about it on the internet and none of my friends knew anything about it. It's located in a remote area of Gdansk called Stogi...
