Visited here recently with Romperwoman. Entrance was straightforward - thanks for the tipoff. No sign of any security on site, and the place was in good condition considering how long it has been closed - over 10 years. I guess the fact that it's military puts the pikeys and chavs off a bit.
From the road, the empty gatehouse:
Inside one of the buildings at the rear:
Rear of main building/courtyard entrance:
The main entrance foyer:
Stairs in reception:
All the employee's must have had pseudonyms - no-one could really have this name could they?
All the keys were left in the internal doors:
Many of the wooden block floors have expanded and rippled:
We didn't try the telephone:
The library. All the shelves were bare, but some of the section names were a bit sinister - along the lines of 'How bombs work' and 'How nuclear bombs work' etc.
The location means that the front of the building has impressive views over the bay:
Back out of the main building and this is the access road behind it:
One of the many empty workshops:
Follow the arrows:
The 'Official Notices'. Most were from the 1970's!
A staircase...
...leading to a conference room:
The auction catalogue from when the workshop machinery was sold off:
