I followed this bridleway cos it was a short cut to a nearby village. I saw this cottage in the distance. It took me right past it and then I got my camera out.

Used for storage.

As part of the Derbyshire weekend we had a bit of time to kill and I wanted to see the Willington power station cooling towers, not a report, nothing mega, I just like the towers.

Not must but kind of silent cool.

Cheers Newage

Random house I came across on the seafront in Plymouth. It was and could be grand again. For now it's empty and has been for some time, despite its prime location:

Another accidental find, all too good to be true. A sealed up shell. Has a lovely outhouse.

Some odds 'n' ends shots from the other weekend in Germany...

Nice old WW2 era derp powerstation by the name of Kraftwerk Vogelsang. Built by slave labour and bombed to crap by some of the 1,000,000 or so Russians stomping their way to Berlin.

Inside.

Having a cook up on the roof of a small building in front of the station.

Possible WW2 era building of unknown purpose. There were a few of these dotted around the fields just outside a small village.

Mooching a big old Soviet training ground. The soldiers left a hell of a lot of crud laying around. Rusty ammo cans, artillery shell storage tubes, ration tins, NBC overshoes, etc. Was an interesting place to walk around, but knackering.

Tank proving ground observation tower. I love how you can just drive straight into places in Germany and Poland. It's like an "Urbex safari", as DD put it.

Very nice bit of mooching all-in-all. There are some hidden gems out there in the vast forests of East Germany. I'll definitely be prodding around some more disused training areas in the future.

Grest stuff mate

 

[Angels05Astra]

great pictues.

 

[Sam Haltin]

Superb report. I wonder what relics would be found if that area was scanned with a metal detector.

 

[jsp77]

great stuff Slim, really enjoying your overseas adventures. Keep them coming

 

[SlimJim]

Superb report. I wonder what relics would be found if that area was scanned with a metal detector.

I can tell you that in the commie areas there's a lot of tat Me & DD did have a little prod in the training ground for the LULz and it was mostly tin cans, light bulbs, bottle caps, etc. Within probably an hour I managed to find a cartridge from a flare gun and that was it.

The WW2 spots have normally been pillaged by locals, although it's all about being lucky and finding a golden patch where there was a punch up or two. I've heard of helmets, machine guns and boots with legs in them being dug up in my town though. A few months back builders with a digger found a live Panzerfaust next to the flower market! I'm not hugely lucky with metal detecting, although from time-to-time I get interesting, albeit worthless bits 'n' pieces (but interesting, so I'm happy) in the UK. Here I've only had a couple of hours out with the detector and seem to have a penchant for digging up Tokarev TT rounds!

Thanks for the support, chaps
