I'm back from another one of my jaunts across the Atlantic, in fact I'm so soon back I still haven't recovered from the epic that was the last day coupled with jumping straight onto a six and a half hour flight smelling like something dragged out of hell itself, with no sleep in the last 30 hour period.
The first location I happened to find myself in was a fairly small one but it was very close to where I was staying with my explorer friend and he'd never explored it - in fact none of my friends up where this is had. So it was a bit of a journey into the unknown for both of us.
Once in it was clear there was more to the site than my friend had first thought so we set about exploring the rusting hulks of two coal conveyor buildings and the old conveyor line. Sadly the main draw for this location, the crane that would have taken the coal from barges and lifted it onto the conveyor system has had a large fence put around it with pressure pad/movement alarm sensors rigged up, probably to stop people climbing up and jumping into the river, and also probably to help protect the very active building situated right next to it. So that was a shame in a way but still it made for a nice shot or two behind the fence.
Anyway enough jabbering from me, here are some photos.
Thanks for looking, more photos here https://www.flickr.com/photos/mookie427/albums/72157671302413533
