Little bit of dereliction for you

[® Andy]

My name is ® Andy and for most of my life I've liked to explore places I'm not supposed to ... though today was a bit freaking wet for it because it was raining just as heavily inside as it was outside.

A particular fav given the cone ...

Almost all were shot hand held, since I was exploring on my own today and prefer to not have to use a tripod so I can move quickly. The light was flat and s**t anyhow given the weather, so I was happy with the slight increase in noise (tho' my 500D is pretty good up to ISO 1600) for the convenience of speed.

Love this sort of stuff! Long time since I've been doing any sort of this stuff though. Where abouts is this?

Chichester, on the south coast.

Good work sir!

[jam.]

How do you prononce that? Randy? Registered Trademark Andy?

Odd.



I love pics like this - used to spend hours on end trawling trough the 28days later forum. Which admittedly isn't as adventurous as actually taking the pictures, but, yeah nice pics.

Bye.

So the maltings obviously, and isn't (or wasn't since think it was being converted) Rauceby that way too. Also St John's can't be too far away either. What else?

I love these sort of places, how do you get in ?

There's a fair bit of nice stuff round this way it seems. St Johns is close although it is fairly tight recently. The maltings are amazing, I've done my groundwork and I'm waiting for a decent day to go properly. Almost next door to the maltings is Sleaford Flicks too.
RAF Stenigot is worth a walk round, even if it is completely open.
There looks to be a lot in Nottingham too.

Rauceby I think is gone, but I've got time to have a look at the moment, so I'll take a drive out and see.

I'll PM you a google map of another site too.

A bit of guts and a keen eye for an already open way in paired with an occasional need to climb a bit.

 

[Gally]

Any story behind the building Andy?

I'm sure I've seen a report from St John's fairly recently, but obviously with the building work around it it did get harder. I'll look forward to you getting round the maltings though! And as for Stenigot, if the dishes aren't up there as one of the most recognisable and cool places to photograph ... tho' rumour has it that they're finally going, and I think the buildings that used to be there already have done!

Wow, great pictures Andy. Love this sort of thing.

People are still getting into St Johns, but security are quite on the ball. Apparently they've taken to hiding around the place and waiting.
Personally I think that's a good thing.

I'll definately be having a go at it sooner or later though.

I was at Stenigot a few days ago and there was a digger up there, I'm not sure how long it's been there though.
