Golf Course Construction Plymton June 08

[Scotty]

this site is or was going to be a new golf course but construction stopped cause the roads was getting to muddy. dont know much else about the site really.

me, jamesPP and scrub 1st visited the site as we heard about some arches on are way to the arches we found a truck that turned out to be more intrested than the arches.
Bout a month later me, sarah (my girl friend) and scrub went back to take some more pics of this abandonded tipper and i had a mission of my own. jack the cab up and take some pics of the engine.

well, that was the plan.

before

after, not sure what happened. it blew up or got cut up and taken for scrap.

all that was left was the wheels, the cab, and a front wheel with the wish bone and part of the steering rack still attached.

We also heard of a cat that was abandoned just in the next field.
off we went to try and it find it.
we found the cat and a shed with loads of other toys in

PICS!!!!

But its not all bad.
i got my engine pic

Great shots there, shame about the truck
But as long as you got an engine shot!
