This Waste Water Treatment Plant closed in 2012, as well as water treatment it seems the site took soil samples and tested them in the labs. This could be related to the old site across the road which used to produce pesticides and herbicides, and has since been demolished. The treatment plant is also due to be demolished to make way for housing.

After spending a good 2 hours exploring uninterrupted, I decided to take a look in the squash courts nearby. I’d only just snapped my first photo inside when I turned around to see blue lights flashing at the top of the lane, and a Police officer walking along the path with an angry looking German Shepherd. Climbing back out of the window, I started to walk towards him. I explained what I was up to and another officer approached asking to see my photos and ID. After he was happy I wasn’t up to no good he gave me a 10 minute lecture on health and safety and trespassing and I was free to go. Luckily I caught it all on GoPro so I can watch it again later for my own entertainment!


Thanks for looking,

Rubex
 
I do like this spot.

It was the water treatment facility for the former Bayer Agrichemical plant that was situated across the road, it continued operating after the main Bayer site closed in the late 00s to help with the cleanup of the heavily polluted site and eventually closed down when the main area was demolished in 2012.
 
Lovely photos! Quite a bit of stuff left by the looks of it.
 
Cracking report Rubex, you have taken some lovely photos. I enjoyed my visit here, looks to be a little more graff appearing now.
 
Great stuff Rubex, nice take on a very cool place. I would love to see that lab for myself. Thanks for sharing.
 
Bangin :D Got a LULzy vid from when you got pinched?

I'll send you the video privately lol

Cheers for the comments everyone, this is a cool place for a wander around. I'm not sure if it's going to be standing for much longer.
 
Fantastic set of photos as always, cant believe you're not sharing the vid of you getting pinched tho! :)
