silo

I had checked this place several times with not much luck after driving past it one day by chance. But one time I was that way I thought I would check again. I spotted the doors open and two cars outside. So popped my head in and asked if I could take photos. They were more than happy too and...

Well, there's no place more self-isolating than an abandoned granary miles from civilisation, so with that excuse ready to use on any military checkpoints and/or Gestapo patrols, today I ventured off into the Norfolk countryside on this (perhaps sarcastically) beautiful March afternoon. I'd...

Obviously done before so I won't go into too much detail on this one. Quite an interesting explore considering it is about to be demolished in 2 weeks time from the day I posted this thread. Really gave us the motivation to thoroughly explore this place and look in every dark corner and behind...

BRITISH EXTRACTING CO. LTD // HULL // APRIL 2018 Explored with @jaws who I explored with in November/December 2017 https://www.28dayslater.co.uk/threads/british-extracting-co-receiving-house-hull-november-2017.110685/ Some stolen history from other posts... This former British Extracting...

'Silo City' is the affectionate term for an area of Buffalo in Western New York which has the largest concentration of grain elevators anywhere in the USA. The whole area was plunged into decline after the 1959 opening of the St. Lawrence Seaway which meant ships loaded with grain could bypass...

With all the shit that is going on with North Korea at the moment, I was reminded of a visit I did to this nuclear missile silo back in 2005. This was a permission visit - but this was mega…. I can’t believe I haven’t posted it before. The control room was certainly epic, but the silo - with...

History “The decision has been made to dismantle the Bishop Auckland gas holder as it no longer serves a purpose in maintaining gas supplies to the local area. The ongoing costs of keeping the gas holder in good repair have become economically unviable” (Tim Harwood, Programme Manager). The...

In March 2015 I explored an incredible Titan missile silo launch complex. The place was huge. I was down there for nearly 4 hours. It's been abandoned for over 50 years and most of the equipment has been removed, but it's still a phenomenal place to explore. If you ever...

Visited with Clebby & Huey. Much thanks to Clebby for hinting at checking this out after a successful explore previously that day. We didn't really have a plan but walked up to it like we owned it. Despite walking past two guys in a cherry picker dismantling a metal overhang attached to the...

Sharpness Dock Grain Silo, Gloucestershire. At the risk of sounding conceited, and please believe me when I say that isn't my intention, why the hell aren't people out there cracking their local sites? Since last summer we've posted several new and interesting places from Gloucestershire -...

I've had my eye on this Silo for a few years as my girlfriend used to work not far from this site so I used to see it everytime I would go and meet up with her. I had a wonder about a few times with a friend but it always seemed very busy down there , anyway the whole place had shut down so I...

Visited with @Seffy Both of these reside with Avonmouth docks. We visited both of these in one night after a lot scoping access to the dock. Being night we had to light paint with our torches, how we didn't get noticed I will never know! A thoroughly enjoyable explore I highly advise people...

As my stay in America rolled into October I headed out of Chicago and Eastwards on an overnight train towards Buffalo, intending on spending the day with a few contacts I had made before I flew across to the States and exploring what the upstate NY city had to offer. Well at least that was the...

This was a random stop-off on a Sunday morning after Bitca and I had failed attempt at Berkyn Manor earlier (the bulls were sleepy, but the fencing was anchored hard into the ground, lots of razor wire at the top and bottom of the fencing and razor wire bundled into the ground-floor windows) so...

Back in 2009 this was quite a nice little urbex, but now its trashed. At the time I was a new explorer and scared off some weeks previous to this by a scary man who worked there! 2009: Finally, we wrapped the day up with the good old Water Eaton Grain Silo! This place is amazing and is so...
