Visited with Mookie back in the summer, my first visit to Pyestock after a previous fail. We covered the majority of the site as he explained in his post. Finally got round to sorting through my photos so thought i'd do a report
On with the photos.. I found this a very difficult site to photograph as i was still very unsure of my SLR which i had only used a handful of times when we explored the site so alot of photos i was very unhappy with, still a reason to return. Thought i'd give you some of the common sights aswell as a few that don't seem to get covered on here

The shire size of this is breath taking, every says how big it is but until you experience it you just cant comprehend
My favourite picture from the day
Potters manors house pics from the summer to follow soon aswell hopefully, if i ever get 5 minutes peace!
As it was his first trip we took in the two big draws first, the Air House and Cell 4 before heading to the (pretty crap) Computer Building. At this stage it was a magical mystery tour as we had both not done any of these bits before, we just asked each other where we would like to head and tried to find something good! After a whizz through the computer building we utilised the Monk's Tunnel which brought us out into Cell 3, which gave me the feeling of absolute awe again, the pipework in that thing is absolutely bloody enormous! We had had a trouble free explore so far despite being nervy at many of the weird noises occuring seemingly in and around the Cell 3 building, and whilst we were both stood on the top level walkway in the building we heard security in their Land Rover rumble past...After a bit of waiting we stumbled across the (still operational?) water pumping room, tried for the fire station to see the plane but found it locked tight and ended the day at Cell 3 West. Brilliant
