I'll Just leave a link to subbrit as there is a brill write up and its better than one i could do: Subbrit - https://www.subbrit.org.uk/sites/penketh-heavy-anti-aircraft-battery/
Explore
there's not to much to say about this place, the place is more of a Artillery than a POW camp with almost every part of that being demolished. but its still a unique place. I seem to be the only explorer who's climbed the water tower which is quite a suprise but thats probably since the door only has been recently opened then. Worth mentioning this was explored in the last week of may.
