Back in 2009 this was quite a nice little urbex, but now its trashed. At the time I was a new explorer and scared off some weeks previous to this by a scary man who worked there!

2009:

Finally, we wrapped the day up with the good old Water Eaton Grain Silo! This place is amazing and is so inviting!

Built in 1940, the Water Eaton Grain Silo was used up until the 1980s and has remained derelict since. It has had planning permission passed, to enable Ewelme based waste company Grundon, to build an enormous waste processing and recycling plant.

The site is a mecca for retro industrial equipment, and is so interesting to walk around, although the road and nearby park and ride make for paranoia, the building also creaks and shakes in the wind.

The roof is fantastic as well, and the views are breath taking. This site has been done a thousand times, I know but its still worth another report!
