By 1859, the demand for more space for beds at St George's Hospital was at an all-time high, but Mr Atkinson Morley, one of the hospital's governors, and a wealthy hotel owner, left St George's £150,000 in his will. A plot of land in Wimbledon was purchased and the hospital built and opened in...

Not sure whether this belongs in Military or Industrial..its both really but hey... Former RAF fuel depot built into the hillside to protect it from hostile activity,built in 1932 but after the war was little used until Minster Fuels used it until 1995.Inside the structure is a labrynth network...

Visited 2011 with Mr Bones,Tommo and Waddy. The earliest reference to quarrying dates back to 1833,when an earthquake caused the death of a man in a rockfall.In 1906,2 wood fired kilns were installed for producing industrial grade lime,but upgraded in 1926 to 6 coal fired kilns. As far as I...

Another explore with the long suffering,again,she declined the excitement,and remained in the car!! Tiny bit of info:Cooling Towers from the old power station that shut in 1999.The towers are 300 feet high..218 feet in diameter at base..145 feet in diameter at the top and 122 feet in diameter...

Took the long suffering for a stroll round this sheep ridden base,but she got bored fairly quickly!! .As of early 2010, much of RAF Upwood is unused, closed by the Ministry of Defence in 1994. Most of the base was vacated and the land and buildings sold off to civil ownership. In 2004 Turbine...

Hidden in the slopes below Solcum Aylesbury hillfort are a remarkable network of Second World War tunnels. These tunnels are laid out in a grid pattern and extend over three miles in length. They are the largest surviving part of a wartime complex which was built in 1941 as a “shadow factoryâ€...

Dadipark began life in october 1949 with the help of Pastor Deweer of the nearby cathedral.The rides were mostly powered by the kids themselves which no doubt enhanced their physical side unlike those of today.In later years,the park was run by local retailers and with that eventually some rides...

To some,this will be quite bland as an explore,but for me,my job involves working in and around social housing schemes,and when I heard about Billy Banks,I had to see it. This estate was an award winning project in the early 60`s,but in the late 80`s began to decline,and by 2002,most of the...

After getting ejected from West Park by MC Hammer and told at my age I should know better than to lead the youngsters astray by going in abandoned buildings,we headed over to Cane Hill to try our luck there.Spent a hassle free few hours in what some call The Daddy of Asylums...

Ok peep's moving away from the schools for a while, we had a mooch around this place and to say it was dirty would be an understatement :D An iron foundry in North Hykeham, with a production capacity of approximately 80,000 tonnes of castings annually, they manufactured high quality iron...
