Medler's was once an enormous scrapyard located in Norfolk but was largely cleared out when scrap metal prices peaked in the early 2000s. The drop in prices meant the rest wasn't worth dragging out the undergrowth and what has been left is a collection of mostly ruined cars, commercial vehicles and buses from the 1930s up to the 1970s as well as a few tumbledown buildings which is only a fraction of what was once there (find the place on Google Earth and dial the map back to 1999 for a window into what it once looked like!).

Whilst we were there we bumped into a couple of guys who used to work there, which is funny because according to Mikeymutt he has never seen anyone else there in all his trips! They were fine with us wandering around taking photos though which was nice.
