Unfortunately passed by Fletchers on the way to other sites, now under the bucket :( All of the small buildings at Fletchers are now cleared too outside of boiler house and turbine hall, which are being kept I believe for the housing estate

I spotted this set of buildings on the far outskirts of the RNPF Caerwent training grounds earlier this year, and also noted that whilst obviously ex-military it wasn't located within the same boundary fencing as the rest of the site. It turned out to be the former social club buildings for RNPF...

Morning. The Ladywood Police station in Birmingham, down near Broad Street / 5 ways has closed. Fences up around it. I have explored it twice but have nothing but an out of date camera phone so just passing on the lead. Access is plentiful. It is mostly empty and the copper wire boys have had...

St Joseph’s Social Club, Sutton-in-Ashfield, Nottinghamshire - June 2023 “Joeys has been a part of the community for many, many years and most people in the area have a connection to it either personally or through friends and family. It is a safe space for a lot of the older people in our...

visited with @GRONK We came across the social club by accident while recceing something else, nothing epic but well worth the visit. The social club is a typical working men's club of a bygone era, consisting of a bar / lounge, games room & concert room with stage, closed about 2010. facade...

Introduction I'm new here and still fairly new to the hobby, but this has been one of the better explores iv been on. Due to the location, The place remains with a fair bit still in place, and hasn't been too vandalized. After hearing about the building online, it took a fair bit of digging to...

Express Works Social Club The Express Hall was once part of the sprawling Express Boot Works factory on Nene View in Irthlingborough, which once employed hundreds of locals in Northamptonshire's famous shoemaking trade. The Express Hall was used as a show factory in the 1900s according to...

This little local site has been cheekily hiding right under my nose, 20 minutes walk from my house, for as long as I've been exploring. It's so tucked away I never even noticed it before, and looking at it from the air it simply looks like a long shed type building at the back of some houses. It...

After a couple of fails I decided to see if I could find this place, I tracked it down and took a leisurely drive to the district! It's been seriously trashed but still photogenic and entry wasn't too bad! St Bonifaces social club was about to hit it's 50th Year but along came Covid, caused it...

I first spotted this place back in October on the way back from picking your own pumpkin but I wasn't sure if you could get into it - then I forgot about it until I saw another explore ( @Chloe Explores ) got in .. So after i saw this i though ill head down to the social club my self on a late...

so nice to be able to get out exploring again even if the weather was terrible. with @Chloe Explores this place was just off the road in a big field and from the graffiti outside and the fact it was open you’d think the inside would also be covered but it was surprisingly minimal. it was...

This is my first report - feedback welcome! :) History of the Governor House This information comes from the excellent Reading Museum: https://www.readingmuseum.org.uk/blog/goodbye-gasholders The Governor House was part of the Reading Gasworks, and was built in 1903 to support the growing gas...

This is our first report for a while, as we’ve been side-tracked with other commitments. We have been exploring still, managing to get to ten or so places, however we haven’t had time to write them up. It feels good to back into writing up reports and we have some interesting explores we will be...

Never heard of this place till I found it on a my daily Google Earth check. It wasn't the most exciting of places to explore, the club was an absolute deathtrap and looks like it's just been left to the elements. I'm not surprised its in this condition considering access wasnt exactly difficult...

Hi All, I’m new to this posting page and I am also from Stevenage I am sharing my first post which is from Tuesday 3rd March 2020 and the building that I went to explore was originally a old former Police Station then turned into a Social Services centre, I was able to access the old plant...
