I'm finally back posting something!
This time we visited a very large complex with a mysteriuos story and even if it has been completely vandalized, you can still find some very cool rooms or objects...
This is a former nuclear research laboratory, which focused on studying new technologies...
Lab X
Wing 5 is the notorious "Laboratory X" located on the Houghton Grange site.
This lab would have seen some of the more live experiments carried out of the poultry stock. The curved Perspex windows peering into the almost operating theater like rooms would allow the observer to view the...
There was an intoxicating smell of chemicals in the air and a smell of ubiquitous mold. Ampoules and glass beakers, volumetric flasks ... broken ... crashed throughout the room. It is best not to touch anything. Just being in this room led the airways to rage
History
The Wallaceville Animal Research Centre, located in Wellington, New Zealand, was a Government-owned veterinary and animal research centre. Following the establishment of the New Zealand Department of Agriculture in 1892, a new facility was commissioned to undertake research on...

this repo is a combo of 2 visits :
Enjoy :P

Thanks for looking. Hope you enjoyed! :)
Every so often it helps to 'know the right people' as they say...sometimes they can get you into places before they are cleared, no questions asked. Whether it's true 'urbex' or not is irrelevant as the general population wouldn't see areas like this anyway so it is a true explore in my book...
Slightly different from the norm as we made a late night visit so no available light what so ever!
Thanks to SpaceInvader and Obscurity for a few tips on access used,bit of a shame as that is no longer doable so my self and Urban ginger had to scout for another way in...
Brief history borrowed...
Contrary to popular belief Transco does not sell or supply gas it is simply the branch of National Grid PLC that transports gas across the country via a network of pipelines.
That's about as exciting as it gets really, but remember if you smell gas, call Transco straight away!!!
