WW2 Gas Mask Dump (Plymouth)

Found this with help from a brilliant website, despite looking like a normal old crappy quarry from a distance, only when you get close to it will you notice it is something rather extraordinary. This old quarry is full of parts of world war gas masks, mainly filters. This is by far one of the most unusual sites i have been to and certainly one of the most mysterious. Anyway enough of the chit chat and on with the pics:
Sorry their quality are not great as it was raining and i needed to escape as soon as possible.









thanks for looking.

ahhh this is facinating...what a find!!

What a gasssssssssss...

Thats certainly very different!

The filters are probably dumped like that because they contain asbestos. :icon_evil See HERE for more info.

Wonderful stuff. I want to go there. Now.

The subtle difference is those ones have not got the asbestos filled filters still with them, now we know where the filters were (illegally) dumped.

That might be worth disputing

What a find! Can you imagine the possible environmental risks? I don't know anything about asbestos, but seeing something like that scares the crap out of me.

I hope there isn't any residential sites nearby.

Great shots x
