Upper Heyford Water Tower – June 2014

Having explored much of this disused/part used USAF base in Oxfordshire with my good friend TBM; and since its all being torn down and redeveloped, including peoples homes which the RAF built for the USAF in the 1960s, and we have explored much of it but sadly not the Water Towers, we decided that we were well overdue.

We went Midsummer to catch the best sunrise and were on the top of this awesome water tower by 03:50am and made our descent at about 06:15. It was an incredible, magical sunrise and a wonderful night of taking photos.

Thanks a lot guys

Excuse the laughing at the end but we'd been dodging getting spotted all morning and as soon as we got on the ladder in plain sight the car drove straight past!

Some really cool views there, Not personally done much in the way of roof tops etc, think the tallest thing I've been up was a grain silo. -a lot of the guys I go out with are into roof tops etc not had the pleasure as yet
