One from the archives here.. thought I'd already posted this one, but turns out I haven't!
This was my first proper explore, and credit to Chopper on this one for taking me out, showing me the ropes and providing the awesome locations!
History:
Cocking Lime Works and its associated chalk quarry are abandoned industrial sites in the South Downs of England. They are situated to the south of the village of Cocking, West Sussex, close to the South Downs Way. The works are on land owned by the Cowdray Estate and are not open to the public. Cocking was the source of lime used for the manufacture of Midhurst White bricks and for agricultural purposes.

Still remember this one well, being my first day out exploring and all.. after being busted at the first place we headed on up to the limeworks. Had a nice little wander round here and headed up into the quarry, only to be greeted by a guy in a jeep. after a brief explanation of what we were doing he was on his way - just told us to be careful and that was that! was a sweet day out, and got some pictures i'm pretty happy with
It was a nice view, but safe to say i was knackered by the time i got to the top:lol:
As always, thanks for looking!
