One of the seminal Urbex locations in the UK so I really had to pay this place a visit. Seen loads of pictures and love industrial locations so was pretty excited about seeing this one. I’m sure a few on here could tell me a thing or two about the history of the place so I won’t...

Explored with therealindianajones and luke,

2013: NO idea 2011: Fantastic explore, visited with with Zoe; My Girlfriend, TBM and his girlfriend. Once in, we determined the noise of angle grinding to be coming from the live part of the site, though the Gypsy caravans complete with stables and stud out the back were a little un...

This was once a marshalling yard on a massive scale, most of it closed since 1987. It has been called a train graveyard and did have rusting locos and carriages until as recently as late 2012 at least. These were what I was really looking forward to seeing, however they had been taken away to...

Taken from aDarkerTrantor website; History on this place, like many mills is rather patchy, however my understanding from various tips to the library is that a mill has existed on the site for the best part of 150years. The site was bought by William Hollins in the 1890 who occupied the...

So This is my 5th visit to the place Anyway explored with Harry, Starlight and 1 non member, arrived at the site in the wee hours of the morning and made our way in.. access this time around was surprisingly easy with no one around we where very relaxed. After helping Star after she made...

Lots of history on these mills that most people already know, for those who don't here's a link to some history Few iffy rooftop shots, of 30 sec exposure, with the f/ too high apparently... slowly learning though! A few from inside. This is a vast place, some bits empty, others with all...

A really nice mill with a little hidden jem.The workshop is like a time capsule worth the trip just to see this, a little history.... Dalton Mills was once the largest textile mill in the region, employing over 2000 workers. It was built by Joseph Craven in 1869, replacing the original mill...

So a fair few people i have done this and it is one of my favorite sites to explore, still so much to see in there. In 2012 i managed to get in there total of four times, so instead of doing four different reports i decided to stick it all in one mega thread covering all of the visits, so sorry...

This set of tunnels is located just West of the tunnels known as the Oil Mills, in the Limekiln Street area of Dover. It is likely that the tunnels were originally the result of chalk being mined for lime burning in the nearby kilns during the 19th Century. The five roughly parallel tunnels are...

Now then. Recently Maniac, Frosty and I went out for a spot of Dover derping and this is "wot we done" ;) South trollands #1: Troll mills west: Thanks to the guys for an entertaining evening out, and thanks to you for looking in, R. Jewson

Hi guys, Won't put any other posts up tonight - don't want to flood the boards and be throw off ;) This was a permission visit and a total one off. A lot of this is still in operation. The original Abbey Mills Pumping Station, in Abbey Lane, London E15, is a sewage pumping station, designed...

TONE MILLS ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Tone Works was the dyeing and finishing works established by Fox Brothers and Co of Tonedale Mills, Wellington, at the confluence of the River Tone and the Back Stream . The site is shown on the Tithe map of 1839, and the works was enlarged and altered over the...

These tunnels in Limekiln Street were most likely dug in the early to mid 19th Century to extract chalk for burning and turning into lime. Map of the tunnels The limekilns, which gave the street its name, were located nearby. It is probable that the lime and excavated chalk were used in...
