Up nice and early on Sunday this was a last minute change of mind explore after we decided we couldnt be bothered to drive all the way to the explore we had in mind, thank god we did an incredible place that in the end took up most of the day and a cheeky return visit on an afternoon this week to finish off given the size of the place. Explored over the two visits with three non-members including Jay C, Mr Groves and Pez !

Some History (very limited) Thamesteel, in Sheerness, Kent was a steel foundry until January 2012. The owners of the plant went into administration and workers came to work to be told that they no longer had a job. Nothing has happened since that day, everything lays exactly as it was, just with a layer of dust covering every last bit of history which was left behind. Another victim of Britain's lack of support for industry.

On with the pics (bit heavy im afraid due to the size of the place)
