A few awful window shots in another treasure trove from yesterday, unfortunately was too overgrown to try every access point. I'll try again in Winter.

That looks tempting?

That looks tempting?

Yeah, but if I can't get in, i'll leave it and move on to the next place.

When we were in France this Summer came across this old medieval town called La Reole. There were stacks of empty properties but little opportunity for serious exploring. Hence here's a couple of externals...

The thing that really caught my eye was the old police station. This would have been a right place to explore. Sadly all locked up...

A tantalising peak at what could have been:

Came across this unique little building on the Blyth Road near Bircotes. I think it had something to do with electricity maybe? It looked completely sealed but then round the back was a little pikey-hole smashed in the insulation bricks. I resisted the urge to crawl in as it would have been pitch-black in there and I didn't have my touch. Not enough for a full report so popping them in here.

Tower-like building on the other side of the road:

Stop teasing...You need to get back with the torch sir ;-)

Ha ha....and maybe not on my own!

Anywhere near the colliery? They tended to use lots of electrickery and thus have some nice big sub-stations and switch rooms.

 

[druid]

Ah, close to the colliery, the railway and the land drains.

 

[HughieD]

Think you've nailed it there Druid!

Took these today, felt like putting two of the pics that didn't make it into the report through a filter, I like how they turned out.

Chanced across this old industrial place that sits on the banks for the River Trent in Gainsborough. No access so popping these externals in here:

Great shots Hughie.

Had to visit someone in rural Suffolk today and ended up discovering this little chapel building in the middle of nowhere. The wasp nest by the door is enormous.

Seeing the fantastic thread by Shanters on Drax I thought it would be topical to cheekily post a few of mine from a tour I was on. There not nearly as sharp or composed tho!

 

[druid]

Nice view of the biomass domes and rail supply line to them konrad.

The way the wagons are automagicly moved through and discharged is good to watch.

I've posted a couple of images from Drax before but never bothered with a 'report'. Here's another random image. Taken underneath the separator building (railway discharging is way behind me). That wagon is a couple of hundred yards away and the biomass domes are either side of the roadway.

Who could not like photos of power stations and their infrastructure?

Another old building next to the Trent in Gainsborough. Didn't bother climbing inside so externals only so popping them in here:

I'm led to believe this is the old Attercliffe Radical Club in Sheffield, not report worthy but it has a rather large piece by Phlegm if you're into his work

Good work. That's pretty far gone. And yes, nice bit of Phlegm there...

That roof shot is glorious
