May 2024 Visited with @stranton, @Shaun and @sam8327 one day, followed by another visit with @stranton and @Mr Budge. In my recent report on the Typhoo Tea Factory, I covered most of the site's history so I won’t repeat it again here. The images below are from a section of the vast factory...

May 2024 The Visit I visited this place with @stranton and @Mr Budge. In the past, I have had a few attempts at seeing the neighbouring Burtons Biscuit factory, but I didn't have much luck back then. The old factory has since been demolished, and a new housing estate now stands in its place...

The explore: We found this old factory local to us by chance, fairly simple to enter. Not entirely sure of the history. Houses next door to each entrance, factory is located behind the houses. Seems to have been an old computer parts storage warehouse, most of the parts being from 1980ish and...

For background on this biscuit factory see the previous report in which blocks A - C on the north site of the site was covered. This was mainly admin, packaging and social things. https://www.28dayslater.co.uk/threads/burtons-biscuits-part-of-moreton-wirral-jun-2018.113587/ School is out for...

There was a lead on here two years ago for this factory: https://www.28dayslater.co.uk/threads/burtons-biscuits-moreton.103890/. So since its local and no reports have appeared I went for a look. The current effort only covers the blocks arbitrarily labelled A, B and C below, about a third of...

Moreton in the Marsh District Hospital - September 2017 Visited a few weeks ago with Mookster and two other non-members for one of their bithdays.   It was a very relaxed explore as you'd expect; pretty trashed and stripped of most things, but still retained some photographic merit.  We were...

I lucked out on this one a little bit but then again it goes to show the advantages of having a real interest in the places your exploring rather than just an interest in taking photos in them. Ive been after a row of cinema seats for the house for a while and the other day a decent row...

I admit that this isn't the most exciting of Reports, but I'd been wanting to do it for some time as I've known about this place for 30 odd years (family members used to work there). As I couldn't find any reports, I thought I was the first to splore this place, but on trying to find some...

There where a number of aircraft there but i only managed to get near 2, a fighter plane, Hawker Hunter (831 WT804) and a Westland Wessex HAS.3 (XP 150) Helicopter. I TBM, Landie Man and Zotez. TBM and Landie Man got up close to an old passenger jet a Vickers Viscount (814 G-BAPF) I'm afraid i...

This site has been visted by aircraft and rail enthusiasts over the years with permission (after much H&S negotiations). But then back in my early days when I'd never heard of UE I'd tried to get a visit of a Class 73 (I'll come to this) WAY back in 2007 but was declined. But luckily I actually...

For those that are interested this is Morton on lugg signal and crossing box, it is the one that was in the paper's back in January where the car got hit buy a train. The route controlled by the box, past Hereford and sidings. Under the leavers is the locking room when pulled this...
