After finishing in Malverbury and having the now regular bog-standard explore lunch which involves raiding the nearest Greggs of their sausage rolls and steak bakes me and Mr. Landie Man headed off in the direction of somewhere I'd always been meaning to drop by but never got the chance, or always found something better to do. As it happens I really enjoyed it here, a nice big industrial derp to get the juices flowing.

The Beacon Waste Incinerator was used by Worcestershire County Council to dispose of waste, and ceased operating in the early 2000s. The large building sits quietly rusting away down what is basically a farm track in the middle of nowhere - god knows how they got the trucks down there to the incinerator.

A nice chilled explore to end the day on and I'm glad I finally ticked it off.

After initially misreading the title as BACON waste incinerator and breaking out in a sweat I really enjoyed that.

Cheers guys, it's a nice spot if you're in the area with an hour to spare.

They are the large grabber arms that would collect the waste and then deposit it on the other side of the wall where it got taken into the incinerators

Also thought this said 'Bacon' and was a bit disappointed in the lack of bacon paraphernalia :p Looks like a cool spot, and always nice to see somewhere without graff (y)
