harwich

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...

hms ganges is a training establishment in suffolk for the royal navy, opened from 1905-1976 it's now abandoned. very cool URBEX with couple friends :cool::cool: two sites in particular were the silo and swimming pool and that's about the only interesting thing we done. slightly explored the...

After a tip off from a mate that lives in Harwich of some cool bunkers that I should check out, me and a couple of friends jumped in his motor and took a trip down. Once we got there we walked aound the whole of the site and thought it had been a wasted trip as we could see the bunkers from the...

This one's been done before I know, but is to me a fascinating site, so here are some recent pictures. There have been fortifications at Beacon Hill to protect Harwich and the estuaries of the rivers Stour and Orwell since the era of Henry VIII. The decaying remains left on the site date from...

Please be gentle, my first post with photos. First explore with AndyJ1980. Very surreal, and very quiet save for a couple looking for an isolated spot, must have been doggers. Anyway, looking at the previous reports I'm sorry to say its deteriorating a fair bit, graffiti broken bottles and...

hello all, here's my report on the old ww1/ww2 port defence battery at hawich. i used to play down here when i used to stay with my nan, it was alot easier to get in back then as it had no fence around it. it hasnt changed alot over time, its just alot more over grown. i don't know alot of...

Well, I thought no-one else would have done this place but having checked this morning, I find I'm slow on the uptake... :o lol Anyway... being in the area during the day, I managed to locate and get into this place just before sunset. It was freeeezing up high in the buildings as it was...

The other week, me and cellar door decided to spend a day by the sea, so we went to Beacon Hill Fort at Harwich, and a very nice day we had, until two wankers started a grass fire, so a rapid exit was made (I am getting too old to run, it so undignified). We returned many hours later when...

I've been to this place a few times in the past, but always at night - the locals (they were called 'the firm' as anyone who has been there can probably remember the tags) used to put on parties here and a wander around as the sun came up was not high on my list of priorities! So I went back...

Hiya, Please dont be to rough as this is my first proper explore. I know this has been done before but just thought you might like my pics. Was in the area on a non-descript monday, but the sun was shining and it was not too cold. This place is eerie as it seems to be smack bang in the middle...
