Introduction This was the first of two successful site visits on a day out with @Wastelandr on the South Coast. This has popped up a few times online recently, and we were keen to check it out while access was understood to be fairly straightforward. Information & History The Eastbourne Redoubt...

Heyy, im Lauren, from portsmouth. Been to quite a few places now, exploring with my other half. Travelling all over West and East sussex. Would love to chat with others close by and make a little community round here.

This abandoned church, located in the southern parts of Eastbourne, East Sussex, closed in 2017 because the congregation merged with three other local churches to form the new Emmanuel Church, making the site redundant. The building was deemed too expensive to maintain and became vacant, leading...

Hi all, I created this account some time ago and then life got in the way. Figured I would say hi now though with some more time on my hands. I'm from Brighton (or near enough) in Sussex and have done lots of casual exploration when hiking. I'm always intersted in exploring abandoned sites and...

History This place has held many names since its construction in the 1870s: St Cuthmans School, Wispers School, Stedham School just to name a few. Built by architect Richard Norman Shaw, the school’s architecture is somewhat breathtaking. It was initially constructed as a private residence up...

History The mine was active from the late 19th to early 20th century worked by a contractor named Perrier and a sand-digger called Tom Nickham. The sand was sent to the Midlands by train from Pulborough Station for use as moulding sand for making iron castings. The mine tunnels are driven...

Despite a few attempts at the whole hospital when it was still standing and numerous attempts over the years at getting in the last remaining Villa I’ve never had any luck until today. We heard it was open so drove down and had a look, unfortunately the Chapel has been sealed again but after...

Information: Just to classify, I visited this location in September 2024, locating the actual site was not too hard if you stick to the path. There was no security, only a few wire fences that have rusted. Quite a bit of graffiti, but that didn't take away from the old machinery and buildings...
