Hi all, well one of the sites we visited was a disused military site in Brigstock Northamptonshire, and listening to local folk law it’s said the place was used as a POW camp but we can’t find any evidence apart from the bars on the windows was a little eerie. Well the site was built in the 1920’s and was first used as an emigration camp and then sold to the war office 1n 1939 and was used by the British army up to 1947. It was then taken over by the American army in 1951 and finally closed its doors to the military in 1954. In 1960 it was brought by Stewarts & Lloyd’s steelworks (Corby steelworks) which give short term accommodation for its travelling workers witch was mainly Scottish.
So we went in to see how it looks today and it’s fast decaying with many of its wooden structures disintegrating with age but an interesting site all the same.
So on with the shots and hope you enjoy
Thanks for looking
