southall

Explored with @cattos mc budget on the first visit, and solo on the second. After seeing a photo of this drain's outfall on a pollution report - hmm - I immediately tasked myself with locating it, as it looked quite appealing. An initial visit to pinpoint its location and check accessibility...

I explored this -enormous- site with @Landie_Man. Lovely weather for it as well! Access was easy, but not for larger folk - let me say, it was a tight squeeze for me! We started from the top and worked our way down. A fair amount of machinery has been stripped out, but there is plenty left and a...

Since reading The Lord Of The Rings trilogy during quarantine I've been a'hungerin for some adventure. After some digging I came across UrbEx and decided I would give it a try for myself, but it took a while to find the right location; if i was gonna pop my Urbex cherry I wanted it to be...

Quaker Oats Factory: This what-seems-to-be-decrepit factory out on the western region of London has a lot more to offer than I initially believed. The main food made in this establishment was Sugar Puffs; and indeed you can see the omniscient Honey Monster on the highest part of the building...
