Was good to finally get into this part of the site. Been been waiting for this building to become vacant for a long time. Wasn't a great deal in there, but nice to get it done anyway.

is this the one with the big air raid shelters beneath it ?
 
Some gorgeously clear shots,I love some of the more spacious shots,they actually manage to capture the imensity of the of place,not an easy thing to do.
Well done fellows.:)
 
it's all being converted into houses now :(

Can see this from my bedroom! :(
Wanted to have a look around aswell!
 
The houses were already being built when these photos were taken, everything shown here is still there...
 
Well done Mat,bet that fire hose doesnt stay safe for long:lol:

Your probably right there......but don't try using it unless you have tough hands...that old canvas stuff used to scrape the skin off your hands something rotten....:cry:

Some of the fire hoses went to a local museum and are now on a vintage fire engine :)

Oh?

Can you still get inside then? =/

It varies from week to week really, best to go and have a look around.
