I found this on another urbex forum. After not really doing much exploring recently, I decided to give it a shot. I visited this place with Northern_Ninja, and was the designated driver for this day!


Once a hive of activity, this large Royal Mail Depot in South East England received and distributed mail all across the UK.

Closed since Summer/Autumn 2011, it has gone downhill fast, and the interior and exterior reflected the weather on the day we visited!

The site has been bought by Morrisons supermarkets, who in Summer 2012 unveiled plans for a new superstore with 450 car parking spaces, two blocks of houses and flats, a new school and a hotel.

This development is expected to bring in 300 new jobs to West Watford if approved.

Not a great location by a long shot, but a good mooch on a rainy day.
