    Report - Paulsgrove Underground WW2 Radio Station, Portsmouth. February 2025

    After gaining the grand approval from the better half, to attend a tour of Fort Southwick Underground HQ, this was a golden opportunity to check out a few other local sites which had been on my 'bucket list'. Whilst trolling through a certain explorer You tube channel, this little gem had peeked...

    Report - RAF Wayboys - HF Radio site - Jan 2025 -

    This was our second exploration of the day, located just about 5 minutes up the road from the previous site we visited. Initially, we thought this was the medical center, but as soon as we entered, we quickly realized it was not. After checking the eDOB maps, we found out it is a communication...

    Report - Sitkūnai Radio Station - Lithuania - April 2023

    The History: This large site started being constructed in 1937 but suffered slight delays in upgrades due to the second small disagreement, the transmitter buildings somehow survived the war and were used by the German army between 1941 and 1944. After the war two transmitters were taken from...

    Report - Mullard Radio Astronomy, Cambridgeshire. September 2024

    A place I have been meaning to go to for years but never got round to it until now. Solo explore. After driving round for ages trying to find a suitable parking place I parked up on a grass verge, popped under a gate and started a long walk up a driveway following my map. I wrongly assumed...

    Report - Mullard Radio Astronomy Observatory, Cambridgeshire - April 2024

    Report - Ongar Radio Transmitting Station, North Weald Redoubt, Essex. March 2023

    Visited with Ella. On our way to Norfolk we stopped off here, it’s a shame it’s really flooded and I now understand we missed a bit including a tunnel we have now been told about. Made for a nice little explore though if you like the old military stuff. Entry was pretty simple if a little...

    Report - Paulsgrove Underground WW2 Radio Station, Portsmouth. April 2022

    Visited with Ella. We were Given this as a mooch and when we got there and saw the cliff face let’s just say we were a bit scared Lol. Wandering up and down the field looking up trying to find the entrance we spotted a possible one but it looked really high and not accessible from the ground...

    Report - High Garrett Radio Mast, Essex - December 2020

    The History The 300ft mast itself is of course a utilitarian structure without much in the way of design or character. However, it was evidently built for radio signal I am going to speculate somewhere between the 1960s-80s and has seen recent use by Essex Police who apparenty rent it out to a...

    Report - Mullard Radio Astronomy Observatory, Cambridge - December 2020

    So I took a little drive out to splendid Cambridgeshire. After deciding to climb half a radio mast; which takes me an age, we didn't get there until dusk. Nonetheless, it made for some great starry long exposures which I haven't seen too many of online. The explore was very straightforward, but...

    Report - Paulsgrove WW2 radio bunker Sunday 27th of September 2020

    This is the WW2 radio bunker I went to visit another location but unfortunately was heavily guarded so I decided to take a trip to this astonishing piece of history. Now some of you may think this is boring but the fact you are able to be in somewhere that was once apart of a war that’s not in a...

    Hello guys. First time poster here not a massively interesting one but I was passing through the area so thought it was worth a look. Its taken me ages to get this posted as the whole reason I visited this site was to test out some 35mm film which I didn't get developed for while. The...

    Heres a request and a post to bait those who seek new challenges to get something I am interested in investigated close up. I have found a site which seems to have no reference here or in Subbrit. Its an estimated 200ft high redundant radio mast which looks to have a ladder all the way up...
