Thomski forced me out of my semi retirement for trip out and about...

After we went to annesley colliery we had a couple of fails...including anticlimb paint all over me and slipping down a bank on my arse !...

We then went to here and what a very interesting place !

I`d advise getting here soon if you live close because it`s got a lot of great stuff in it and TBH most of pics came out crap and so i aint posted them...

There is some really great stuff there though ..

















agghh

Looks like a good explore, cool pics

"Sorry for Douglas Kane. Delay springs had to be made."

Eh? WTF is that all about?

Looks very un-pikey'd!

Good pictures,like the second one!

Great looking place. I've corrected the title, please remember not to use exact dates.

Any chance you could pm the location? thanx boothy

Retirement? The Derby force would forbid such a move

MaBs: Oh it's seen pikey damage, but thankfully the good stuff is holding up very nicely. This was on my list for some time, so kudos to 85 vintage and co for getting first dibs I enjoyed this very much

Oh, it is very pikied, Mabs, they've gone to great lengths in there to get at wiring and pipework, ripping down suspended ceilings everywhere, still a very nice explore though, some great reading in the library!
if you like very in depth scientific books that is!

Nice pics guys...great to see more of the site.

This is a great report! I am really interested in testing/research labs

Found this regarding the future of this site on 'New Nottingham' a website about Nottingham's regeneration projects.

Hi there, would you mind private messaging me the location of this place? I would love to photograph it! Thanks

Nice report, looks like an interesting explore with all the goodies intact

It's nice to find places with bits n bobs still lying around.

It was on my list for a long time too, since I before I first got into exploring. Even once i'd gotten into exploring, the area it's in and the scale of the building put me off going alone, pikeys ect.
