north west

I’ve always wanted to try urban exploring so looking for anyone local who might be interested. I’m 32M, work full time and am a father of two so, as you can imagine my time is very limited. If you’re interested DM me :)

Just seen Urban Exploring mentioned BBC North West Tonight They showed a few urban explorers, Urbandoned was one. Then someone in an asbestos factory, who then broke tiles on a roof. Then they showed different tik tok videos on it. They also showed two Veteran explorers and one called Liam who...

Hi everyone, total novice to this but something im extremely interested in. If anyone has any advice on places to visit around liverpool/wirral/north wales, but can travel I'd be extremely grateful. Also if anybody fancies dragging a newbie along anywhere that would also be appreciated. Thanks...

Looking for anyone in the North East, North West, Northumberland or Cumbria who wants to tag along on some underground explores in the Pennines. Trying to get a small group together, particularly welcome if you’re friendly, sensible, respectful and not had a chance to explore the area yet...

Hey everyone. Until recently I've been living in Germany for a few years, so I'm really out of the loop with UK urbexing and locations now. I'm currently in the North West and mainly looking for Lancashire explorations, but open to travelling around the country for great spots. The last place I...

Hey guys, I'm pretty much a novice when it comes to this hobby but I've explored a couple locations in the past such an abandoned mill and a few old industrial sites. I'm looking to dive in deeper to exploring as it seems that my area in the North-West has no shortage of places to visit (judging...

New/old member here. Used to post on here a bit back in the day & met a range of interesting people through this site including someone I now consider a good friend. Haven’t posted on here in ages as life has been kicking me in the bollocks but looking to get back out regularly again if anyone...

Hello, I'm a 22y/o explorer based out of the Liverpool/Manchester area. I've lurked the forums for a while but finally decided I'd make an introduction before I post a report. I've explored & photographed some interesting spots already, including a St Helens site and a building in Manchester...

Hi there, just saying ello'. Only been exploring this past year so still getting into it. (Many years of lurking on this site!) Just me and my lad and we have had some great fun (and a few scrapes!) I am from the Oldham area so looking for places around the North west. Would love to meet up with...

Draining is an aspect of urbex we haven't tried upto now so we thought we'd dip our toes in quite literally. We started off by having a wonder through the red rock culvert as we were in the area hunting for remains of coal mining and were walking the route of the Lancashire Union railway through...

This is going to be quite a short report on the remains we found of Montcliffe Colliery. Winter Hill near Bolton is famous locally for the huge T.V. mast at the top and is popular with walkers but it has been extensively mined and Quarried in the past. There were multiple collieries around the...

This was a small WW2 explore as we had a free morning and it's not to far from us. I'm fascinated by all thing WW2 so while there wasn't a massive amount to see what was left was interesting. History - The site at Cranage was chosen for use as a training station and aircraft maintenance unit...
