Rank Hovis Flour Mill- Ramsgate, Kent Report-16.08.07

[SuZyQue]

I was out having a walk around and seen a few reports of this place and thought why not, the gate was open so I walked in, I saw a landrover parked around the corner, then I went and walked straight into a security man, nice enough fella he let me wander around taking a few pics, tried all doors, but couldn't get inside, this was a unplanned visit lol, it was built in 1865 and closed in 2005, then sold, I do believe it is going to be turned into yet more apartments, but as yet work hasn't started, the inside from what I've seen of on other sites was mint inside. Enjoy the pics.

The main gate and entrance.

This amused me for some reason.

Enjoy the pics, this was a nice little explore.

Yep me to I luv industrial stuff, especially the old places they have some interesting features, I don't think it's going anywhere fast, especially now we have the housing slump. It's very overlooked from the front, I've got my exploring daughter back from uni at the weekend might get her up there lol, she likes a challenge and comes in very handy for helping me lol.

I've seen some pics from inside this place and it's amazing inside, well worth the effort to try and get in! I had a look around the outside myself about a year ago, but couldn't find a way in that didn't involve the possibility of breaking my neck, and I wasn't really in the mood for climbing too much that particular day.

Maniac.

Amazing. Two years later, this place is wide open and full of graffiti. Sad.
