Pointless conversation! Personally I hate it when people use the phrase 'urbex location' because that's not what it is. It's not an abandoned place saved from death by its fortunate and faithful conversion into an 'urbex location' now is it?! It's an abandoned place. Sure some places become attractions to large numbers of people but is it just this pool you want people to choose from? Every abandoned place has had some chump walk around it at some point, does that make every abandoned building ever a 'location'?
I always like to define my parameters is all. If we're going by the definition of places that have had a heavy urbex footfall, I'd say somewhere like Terrys chocolate or any number of satisfying sites that have been reported 20+ times. I think none of my real favourites were ever definable as urbex locations as they didn't get that kind if footfall for whatever reason, be that their geographical location, security setup, or just how quickly they were demolished following closure. Places like Alcan Aluminium, Elementis, Coryton, Lcpd closures etc. are all up there in my list of favourites all on the scale and level of Pyestock or Inverkip but hardly urbex locations.
