Kelmarsh Up & Dwn Tunnels 520yards. The Kelmarsh Tunnels are situated on the LNWR’s Northampton to Market Harborough line now the Brampton Valley Way multi user path, Originally a single line the “Down” line tunnels were constructed in 1856 - 1859 the single line was forced to penetrate the...

Evening all. First time posting on the forums as well as being a newbie to both photography and urbex, however I have a few locations that I will post over the next few days. Not sure if this is the right place for this one as although it's a tunnel it's not actually underground. Visiting...

The History This site was one of a few fuel depots manned during the Cold War as part of the Government Pipelines and Storage System (GPSS). I'm not sure when it was decommissioned as there's very little online about it. The Explore Getting in the site was very easy as multiple holes had been...

This is from a visit to the Kelmarsh Fuel depot back in 2016. Sadly the last remaining room underground has now been sealed, and MOD private property signs strung up around the fences. I managed to salvage some of the photos I took, most were from inside a pump and generator room. Everything...

Myself and Nightvision hooked up, decided that we would go somewhere close for a relaxed explore, considering that it was my first explore since my daughter was born. This is one of many sites in a large high pressure fule pipeline network that is spread around the country. This perticular...

I heard this place was doable, so when a free slot arrived, dashed over to have a look. Met up with Infrared, and his box of light painting tricks. The southbound bore is open to the public as a cycle path, and I have visited many times over the years. But this is my first visit to the gated...

Like Oxendon Tunnels these are single tracks both up and down, the up one is part of a public footpath and has a air shaft. the down one is locked but the bars have been forced apart so is accessible. Both are 520 yards. The down one opened in 1859 and the up one opened in 1879. both closed in...

I've been meaning to do this for a while now as it's fairly local to me. Finally got my chance about 6 weeks ago but spent so much time engrossed in poking about the place that by the time I thought about taking any pics it was too dark. :banghead Made a return visit this weekend. It is a...

No history to be found on this place, Other than it is known to link into Chelveston airfield before ending up at Sandy Heath depot. These guys turned up and followed me round I'd love to know what all these did and where they went.

Post No.1! I believe this is a military underground fuel storage depot in Kelmarsh, Northamptonshire. It is linked to other depots and bases via the Government Pipeline and Storage System (GPSS). A former railway line (now a footpath) runs alongside the site, the remains of a platform...
