So, Millennium Mills was my first ever explore and it was a failed one. So I kept on coming back to look at it, maybe find a way in, but to no avail. Remeber first time I did it was more than two years ago and from then it seemed like every entrance was secured. Well, at least little to no experience led me to believe so. After a few explores and some more experience I decided that it's time to try it again and this time it was succesful.
The plan:

I was just after work, came home around midnight, but wasn't really feeling sleepy so I texted my friend asking If he would be down to do the place early in the morning. Long story short we met up around 4AM in Canning Town station, walked to the site, scouted the place and using our super ninja skills we managed to get in. Since it was early morning we had the freedom to walk around the whole area with no fear of anyone seeing us (part of the plan that worked out great)

So yeah guys, hope you enjoy my little adventure. Photos below!

For those who don't know what Millennium Mills is here's some information:
The Millennium Mills is a derelict turn of the 20th century flour mill in West Silvertown on the south side of the Royal Victoria Dock, between the Thames Barrier and the ExCel exhibition centre alongside the newly built Britannia village, in Newham, London, England.




So I'll start from the inside of the building.

So the smaller building, brown one, had some original flavour to it still, while the big White one was all scaffolding and other construction bits.

No caption for this, I think it just looks cool.

So, the smaller building is falling apart, which makes for some intresting experience

The crackling sound the floor did, made the whole thing quite intense

Found some old magazines lying around

I thought this place was being renovated? Don't look like much work has been done.

I think it still is as the main part of the building is fully changed. However the small one is still in shambles, but that did make for a great experience!
