Beacon Waste Incinerator, Hanley Swan Dec 2014

[mookster]

After finishing in Malverbury and having the now regular bog-standard explore lunch which involves raiding the nearest Greggs of their sausage rolls and steak bakes me and Mr. Landie Man headed off in the direction of somewhere I'd always been meaning to drop by but never got the chance, or always found something better to do. As it happens I really enjoyed it here, a nice big industrial derp to get the juices flowing.

The Beacon Waste Incinerator was used by Worcestershire County Council to dispose of waste, and ceased operating in the early 2000s. The large building sits quietly rusting away down what is basically a farm track in the middle of nowhere - god knows how they got the trucks down there to the incinerator.

A nice chilled explore to end the day on and I'm glad I finally ticked it off.

Nice shots - I rather liked this place, my companion on the day did not

I enjoyed it more than I thought I would, it's got some nice shots to be had. I wanted to get on the roof but the way up was dodgy to say the least and the state of the roof in many places left a lot to be desired.
