Hi there, having woken from a period of 'urban exploration hibernation' or 'UEH' as it is known in the medical parlance, I found myself in Gloucester at 0600 a week ago, I didn't have time to fully explore this behemoth but got some decent externals for your visual delectation, not worthy of a full report however ladies and gentleman, I present to you:

Foster Bros Cake & Oil Mill - Gloucester

TK421,I think this merits a report actually..damn fine looking chunk of duck egg coloured building..not too far me so I may have to check it out.Did you venture any closer so to speak?
 
Thanks Foxylady, I have something up my sleeve for this week to break my hibernation, watch this space my friend :mrgreen:

Hi Klempner, I was unsure as to whether to do a report or not but given that I did not get into the building I decided it was better off in this thread. I did not get any closer to the buildings security fencing is in abundance, my frame aint built for climbing mate:mrgreen: There are essentially two buildings, the one with the corrugated frontage, (which is just lush), and then building with the bridge, both are next to each other, go for it mate, they look mint!
 
Well with the tall ships being in Hartlepool i thought it would be rude of me not to include some photos. I'll post some more of the sail away tonight. I didnt really think ships were my thing BUT i really enjoyed it and its great for the toon.

Oops ive just realised ive stuck this in the general urbex in stead of the general photos.

Could someone kind move it for me please!

Few from me today:

This building is shored up tighter than a nuns knickers, nice old building though but couldn't find any history:(

And the closed furnicular railway at Scarborough South Bay, a wee bit of history:

The St Nicholas Cliff Lift was built by the Medway Safety Lift Company Ltd in 1929 and opened on 5 August. The Saint Nicholas Cliff Lift is located on the other side of the Grand Hotel from the Central Tramway, near the Aquarium. There originally was no bottom station, passengers stepped into the tramcars directly from the pavement as the control equipment was incorporated in the upper station and no station was provided at the bottom of the lift - health & safety rules:mrgreen: In late 2006, Scarborough Council announced its intention to close the lift, as a cost-cutting measure. The track is 31 m long on a 1 in 1.33 gradient, the track width is 2286 mm.

Yes, just post them in the 'Overseas' forum.
There's a thread to help with the posting of pics from Photobucket. There you go...

Look forward to seeing your pics...and welcome to DP. :)
 
Yey, Thanks Foxylady,
I am going to say it again I am really loving the pictures on this sight, well if I have done this correct here are a few (not very exiting) I took today near where I live. Its part of the old RAE sight, now DERA/QinetiQ. The disused buildings are sealed now for security which is a bit of a bugger because I worked there about ten years ago and some of them have some rather interesting insides so its a bit of a shame...except for this one which doesnt even have much of a roof left.
