History Gin Head Rader Research Facility was made ready for action in 1943, during the Second World War. It was used as an early warning station to alert the RAF to incoming enemy aircraft; it allowed the RAF to scramble fighters specifically to the areas under attack and was part of the reason...

hey all, i'm back again :D So, after setting my alarm at, what can only be described as stupid o'clock in the morning and riding for what seemed like forever in darkness, I finally found myself standing in a Burger King car park waiting for my friend. Lucky I didn't have to wait long, and we...

I struggle a lot for good internet access of late, have a lot of old and new explores to share so will begin with good old Haslar, visited a while back now with Mr K, Matt and a cowboy. Spent hours in here, if you have not visited it is one of the best explores the UK has to offer. We thought as...

History In 1910 a military training camp was built, the now abandoned Haus der Offiziere was added in 1914 as military sports school, which was later adopted seamlessly by the Nazis. This was just part of the huge site which became known as Wünsdorf or “Little Moscow†in the...

Long time since I've had an explore with Frizman, and he'd just got his first Canon DSLR. Newton had been on the list for a long time, it was a good place for him to try it out. I thought everything had gone from here, and that I had long missed the boat, so was quite pleased to find there were...

'Hey do you fancy going somewhere completely different for a change?' was the question that was posed to me in August by one of my contacts as I was planning various parts of my America trip out. What eventually unfolded was our absolutely mental no-sleep weekender which involved three flights...

Haven't posted a report for a while, and have quite a backlog of places to do, so getting started with this awesome former military complex. This was a paid permission visit, not a lot though, but more than glad I paid to see this place, it was huge, but only had a couple hours to run around...

Had a good opportunity to visit this place after a long time of wanting to, managed to score a spot to sleep on Captain Trollface and Spider Monkey's hotel room floor so we could hit it good and early. :D Was stupidly thick fog that morning and would have made for some majorly haunting...

Cheers for looking in guys

Visited with Goldie, this one was a whole lot of fun! getting in at 11pm and sleeping on a hard floor was 'great'.. In fact i'm not even sure i slept! At 6am as it began to get light we started to move around the place and it was so nice to see this place by dawn! Was nice and peaceful at this...

Evening all, A lot of photos here but more to process but I feel that this is the jist of the set so thought I'd do my first report in a while. I'm sure most of you are aware of the big group of people who travelled to the Ukraine for an epic trip - some from the forum and some not so I'll get...

I was told by a friend that this place had been completely demolished, then by another that there was still some buildings left. After a few beers on a Friday night I decided to carry out a bit of research on-line, including a little mooch around on google streetview and discovered several...

After visiting the hospital back in august I decided I would get some more external shots at night. I entered the site as usual and headed towards the first set of buildings and started capturing some long exposures. It was a perfect night, the stars and the moon were shining bright, perfect! I...

I'd been wanting to visit this place for ages, I went with two 28DL members; sentinel, and juicerail, the last of whom was actually born in there. With it being within such close proximity of military bases etc there is a lot of security, gurkhas and dog handlers patrol the grounds 24 hours a...

I went to visit my mate who lives in nowheresville, Lincolnshire, and on the way stopped to visit a couple of sites. Our primary target was sadly not accessible, so made a slight detour to look at Ferdowse clinic and Nocton hall military hospital. I have visited Nocton before, and although we...

Decided to head up to Staffordshire on a sunny weekend morning with my usual mooching partner. Set off mid morning and after satnav tried several times to send us down the M6 toll road we arrived in Featherstone, spotted a likely parking spot and strolled in. We paid the price of setting off...

RAF 'Santas Grotto' is a closed RAF base in the UK. In the past it has had various military uses, and still to this day hosts firearms training and has living quarters in military use. Why Santas Grotto? Well when we managed to get in we were like kids at Christmas! This site is large...

Vistied here with Seeker1701. Picked him up on a very very wet morning to recce another site which was a no go so we decided to head to this one. upon arrival all seemed well and we entered the site. I was amazed at how much stuff was left behind and this was just the first building we entered...
