Another from my first big roadtrip, and the original main aim of the trip!

After a few hours kip in my mates house we awoke to another dismal day, grey skies and persistant rain but we weren't to be put off, no, we had one thing in mind and it was a big one! I'd seen this place pop up about a year before this visit and as soon as I saw it it went to #1 on my 'to see' list and it's fair to say it didn't disappoint even though areas had been absolutely raped by pikeys. It was a frustrating location to get round as well as a lot of the warehouse areas had been breezeblocked up after they were emptied so some inventive climbing was required to get to the tasty bits - this had the added bonus of course of keeping all but the most determined idiots at bay.

Sadly the weather meant the access route into the huge automated warehouse building was just too dangerous so we missed that which was a shame. The storage tank farm at one end of the site was removed a year or so ago and shipped off to a new life in Poland, I think the rest of the site is still there but I've not seen anything from it for a year or so now.

This place satisifed the triple-P rating - Pure Pipe Porn!
