Where would you love to see?

[tattooed]

Dim question can you still go? Or is it one of the parts that's too radioactive?

I have seen photos from inside, I can only assume that you would need special permission, probably only given to officials etc.

 

[Andymacg]

If I could go anywhere and at any time I'd love to go back to the height of the industrial revolution and spend days just wandering around Matthew Boultons Soho manufactory and the other industrial centres of the West Midlands

back to now I would settle for a few months off work and visit every WW2 airfield in the UK

Seen that from Concorde and it cost me 110 quid. Must admit it is a strange feeling to look at. You can just about make the curve out from a Jumbo as well.

Yeah but in a Lightning has to be THE WAY to see anything..lol. I know a few members of the TenTon Club that flew from Binbrook. They even took one or two civilians for the Tail Stand ride but hey, its only a dream. I seen plenty of other stuff at sea that many will not have done. in the 70 s we use to see the russian northen fleet regulalrly up in barents sea doing their stuff. firstt ine iseen them i told the old man on watch and saske if he was worried by them, no said he theres ****** american subs under us and they frighten the **** out of me because they can afford to use their ordnance!

Would love to have done Cane Hill circa 2004.

I second that + add West Park, Hellingly, Severalls, and High Royds. I'd also love to have seen the Nottingham GNR warehouses back in the days when they weren't so badly trashed.

Angkor Wat

Been there

I would love to do the trans siberian express over about 3 months with lots of time to get on and off and explore everything along it.

Have to say thats on my bucket list too!

You have a fascination with the DDR, so do I but mine also extends to waaay before the DDR days right back to the tribal silk road days. I want to go to khazakstan, uzbekistan etc etc. I'd love to have a good sniff around Baikonur too.

Technically mine is communism from 1918 - 1989 (with everything inbetween) ... but who's splitting hairs lol

 

[djmcambs]

if i could travel back in time, i would like to photograph all the railway stations that closed due to the beeching cuts, as they fell into disrepair,also, the once mighty butlins empire, when they had several camps across the country, do these, as they closed down, filey, scarborough, morcambe bay, barry island, and others, as there are only three left now, imagine the pics that could have been gained with todays camera technology.and our once great industrial heratige,many lovely buildings have been lost in the name of "progress" sometimes i think " regress" is more accurate, when you see what replaced them, especially when the land is used to for car parks.

 

[ThenewMendoza]

(oh and Nirvana at Reading '92)

I was there. Original question though, Winwick Asylum, I dislike hospitals but it was local and massive.

[mini_baz]

I think that I would really like to see Chernobyl, after seeing the intensely detailed report by Urbex it is somewhere I cannot stop thinking about.

Ironically, I am a complete UE virgin and have thought about visiting a few local sites and the bottled it. I need an exploration companion.

I saw Nirvana at Reading in '92 . . . the wheelchair performance!

 

[KingRat]

I suspect a few on here would realy like to see the inside of a girls bedroom before they die

 

[klempner69]

Mini-Baz....... "I need an exploration companion".

No need to lower the tone now!!!!.

 

[UrbanX]

Am I the only one that wasn't at Reading '92!?

Probably doesn't warrant a new theread but there are a lot if liv places I'd like to see abandonned / derelict. Imaging walking round a derelict CERN in 100 years...

Someone's feeling frisky this morning...

Shush and go splore some soviet stuff.

 

[Ladyhayles]

I agree with UrbanX there are some places that you hope will become derelict while you can still lift a camera. Don't wish to see the British film industry die but Pinewood Studios would be epic.

Funny you should mention that, it was in the news yesterday.

[mookster]

If by some disastrous economy crash the BMW Mini Plant in Cowley was to shut down....my God I'd be in there like a shot.

 

[M A Capelsion]

for dereliction, well. would love to see a particular corridor in Denbigh Asylum that I desperately want to describe in Swansong, having only seen it for a few seconds on a YouTube vid.
While I'm still relatively alive in Wales, I would like to get down to see Craig y Nos; all I have seen of it unfortunately is Most Haunted (yes, I need educating!)
one thats fairly local to me and worth seeing/documenting is whatever remains of Edwinsford Mansion, which causes something of a stir 'round this way!

 

[UrbexMami]

I'd like to re-tread my father's footsteps and look at the old concentration camps and the massive Industrial areas in Germany.

On top of that, I would love to see the ghost "town" that was just abandoned. Hashima Island, near Nagasaki.

Craig-Y-Nos has a rather dark history to it. I would love to see that one too.
