hi all
Firstly please be gentle with me this is my first real report/post.
Been for a little walk, this afternoon, as I live 200 yards from this place, been trying to get to have a look for a few weeks, but none of my mates have been free, so went off on my own
The site seems to be deserted, entry is not very obvious , so I think it best if people PM for details , and I may come with you, or at least you can call in for coffee
I am not sure how much longer it will be there for, as some work has been done to clear the rough grounds, but no signs of activity other than heaps of cleared under growth.
The site is very big, what you can see from the front is only about 1/4 of it, and was not able to explore that section as flooded (yes I have waded in stuff before but not on my own with no light)
I must admit it is the first time doing a reacky on my own, several heart stopping moments, birds flying at you (feathered ones ), and dogs barking in the nearby gardens and factories, found my self freezing more than once.
here are some of the better photos below:- the full unedit lot are at Photobucket | The safer way to store your photos
View of front building, the lower floor is flooded, blue sign on fence is about housing development, not there the other week when I went by.
View of flood area in front building (will return for this bit later )
View between the two sets of grain silos (could not get any of them open
)
back of site, the power is on as one of the lights is working
At the back of the site are some big warehouses, the ones that where open seem to be mostly empty
view inside one of the back warehouses
another warehouse, next to light that is on
this is the main building I explored today
what follows are shots of the different floors of the building above
Watch out for holes in the floor!!!!! there are a lot of them all over the place!!!!
The birds, that scared the S**t out of me, and their roosting area
could not resist taking pic of this
a lot more to explore
Cheers
