Nortel Sports & Social Club, Harlow, Essex. Nov 2014

[JayB]

This was my 1st ever explore.

Not sure what the history of the building is or anything unfortunately as it was my wife that suggested going here together (she is so romantic lol).

I'm sure this has been done soooooo many times by anyone that lives in the area but I'm really pleased at the photos I got of this place (I took about 200 in total!). I've also done some really nice edits too

Oh that does look romantic! :wink:

Nice mooch, I remember my 1st explore was a pub and its easy to end up shooting hundreds of pics....

Nice for a first explore that mate, always a great experience and onwards and upwards now

Very nice first explore, like the POVs! Its very rare to be the first onw to explore a site i havent seen any pics of it before, keep up the good work

I think it's safe to say that place has definitely seen better days, these kinda places are great for getting experience though and you got some decent enough pics out of it

Hope you don't mind that I added a couple of spaces between the photo links for you as they look better separated a bit

Ive not seen this place in a long while JayB and the vandals and arsonist have certainly got to work on the place over the years.

I use to live just down the road and remember popping in here with Nelly and it was pretty much beaten up then.

Good to see and thanks for sharing

2011 I think

Thanks for all the great comments guys. This place has certainly seen better days but it was a great place to take photos. (Un)fortunately I'll be visiting these places on my lonesome from now on as my wife has decided to bail on me for future explores lol.

Thanks Skeleton Key. Its a shame these places cant be left alone by the minority that think its a good idea to trash the place. Ive seen some of Nellys pics of this place from a few years ago and its so unrecognisable now.

There are some UK explorers, maybe with the FB page or this forum you can connect with some for your future explores

 

[JayB]

Thanks Ghostpast but I wouldn't wanna invite myself along to be rude. I'll wait til I'm invited I think ?

 

[mookster]

Not bad for a first one, the only way is up as they say!

 

[slayaaaa]

Nice one,

Looks good, to be honest when i visited Nortel I walked straight past this seeing the chared remains.

Nice pictures too

You should into the main buidings of Nortel. It's nice in there.

If I can get past security I'll take a look inside. Ive not had to deal with security yet or find alternative ways in to places. Should be fairly easy on my own tho
