nice find looks like a nice little explore, can i ask where about in cornwall? Obviously not an exact location but a general one would be much appreciated lol
 
great site! love how its untouched and un damaged!

kernow - if you go down for a moosh then lemme know if theres a spare seat going bud id chip in to start the landy up ( must be £20 to get it going right?) :lol: looks a half decent explore!
 
Very nice pics.:) Pic 13 looks like the gas decontamination centre.

Also shows me what I am missing (under water) in this similar fuel store.

Nice. Came across something similar near Bristol a while back but it looked pretty forbidding so gave it a miss. I might just go back now although it looked decidedly more live than this one. Better leave the smokes behind I guess. :)
