Hi Gang, haven't posted in a while been busy working loads recently ;-(
My latest project ;
NGTE Pyestock
Bit of History .. For over fifty years, Pyestock was host to the development and testing of gas turbine engines. From the 1950s through to the 1970s, it was the largest facility of its type in Europe, and the design, experimentation and testing at Pyestock helped to usher in the jet age. From running up Concorde's Olympus jet engines in a simulated supersonic conditions through to the endurance checking of every gas turbine installed in the ships of the Royal Navy, Pyestock's credentials were extremely impressive. Check out the photos...
If you would like more info go to Simon Cornwell website : http://www.ngte.co.uk/home.htm
Visited over two trips, still want to go back for more. The place is HUGE and holds so many treasures! I was using my brand new new 8mm Fisheye for most shots as I got it the week before Very happy with it. I think it works very well and brings a new aspect into industrial Urbex.
Anyway on with the photos - hope you enjoy ;
'stairway to heaven'
a test of my nerves getting up here!
