had a nice mooch around here for an evening recently with newbie to here davetdi, started on the site of the old midland line railway station (now sadly demolished) but further exploring in the undergrowth gave us lots of interesting finds - i'll put a few of my pics up then leave dave to add from his faves - he has the better camera and eye for a photo
anyway here we go
anyone any idea what this is, in the station yard, turned from solid steel and gas axed at around 4ft from ground (marks of both still visible) surrounded by a 3m circular brick paved area
there was a huge amount of machinery buried away in the undergrowth
2 huge boilers
some old buildings
and one of the hoppers that carried the ore
a truck still sitting on the rails
thanks for looking
