north

So this had been on my radar for a while, I even visited here in January 2005 with my parents and some friends to buy some Chinese ingredients for a special meal that was being cooked for an occasion of which I can't remember. At 14 years old this place was really interesting, lots of...

Another one of my favourite explores and other than me and Revelation_space I've never seen any reports on this massive building that used to sit in Dyce. Didnt realise it was closed for a long time so we decided to pop along one day and have a look inside, think we spent about 8 hours in here...

More stuff from my archive of demolished/converted stuff :) A very pretty Victorian primary school that was located in the north of the city (hence the name). At some point after closure renovation work was started but then stopped, as far as I am aware this renovation is now totally complete...

Visited with Fortknox0 and Maniac, Lovely explore this, part of the underground, this was an air raid shelter back in the day and now doesnt appear to be used for anything! Brick wall on a staircase leads through to something im sure would be a lot more interesting ;) . Well worth a look...

First solo expedition to a couple of houses that have been empty for a few years now. Apparently there was talk about converting the land theyre sitting on into a luxury golf complex but due to costs and planning permissions its unlikely... Still relatively new to all this so any pointers or...

hi Very quick smash and grab splore as I had an hour to kill this PM. The place was ravaged by fire at some point and not much is left, the tower was what i wanted but as you will see the staircase is long gone. Splored with Scattergun, good catching up mate, nothing like a "can you be here...

The North Wales Lunatic Asylum was the first psychiatric institution built in Wales; construction began in 1844 and completed in 1848 in the town of Denbigh. The roof has been made safe supposedly to prevent further weather damage.After exploring it,the wife told me she still preferred...

Rural exploring... r...rubexing ?. Two small houses located in north Hertfordshire, a small pre-explore before we hit the main one that day. It was during a very hot day so we where quite thankful to get inside !. The houses themselves where shrouded with early 90's floppy disks and home manual...

2 part visit interesting place just a shame about the severe flooding,sorry about the picture quality she is a bit old Between 1889 and 1903 13 Mobilisation Centres were built as part of the London Defence Scheme. Their main function was as a store for guns, small arms ammunition, tools and...

After a quick text to Wevsky one bright sunny Saturday morning Dover bound we went, Was a really laid back easy going visit the place is so quiet its eery ! History, a bit scarce to say the least but heres what little I could find; During a new fear of invasion from Napoleon III two new dry...

Brief bit of history copied from the net... South Flank Casemates, Dover: During a new fear of invasion from Napoleon III two new dry moats where added to the existing citadel defences. The northern and the southern moat both had their own casemates built. Between these there was also a...

After a bit of planning with the mighty Space Invader this was my second trip to this worthy Napoleonic structure, the first having been aborted after a certain young chap that was with us fell from a few feet in the air and made enough noise to wake a major city :o , right on with a bit of...

After a cracking day exploring with Skeleton Key, Priority 7 and Tstranger1066 we ended up in North Weald North Weald Redoubt In the late Victorian period (1889-1903) mobilisation centres were constructed around the London area in order to provide ready ammunition in order to defend the city...

Well on hearing this place was accessible again, I was determind not to miss out this time as last time we went to do this we got news the place had been locked up again just 2 days before we intended to go! So this time at the earliest opportunity available we got ourselves up to London to have...

Had a nice trip to Dover the other day, and did the North Entrance for the first time. This has been covered quite a few times, so I will just quote the history from Underground Kent for those of you unfamiliar with this fortification. :) The weakest link in fortress defence is often the...
