<blockquote data-quote="Mikeymutt" data-source="post: 361923" data-attributes="member: 30366"><p>It feels like ages since I posted anything. What with time and mainly issues with photobucket resizing all my images to freezing my account up and losing all the pics for weeks. it was a worldwide problem for everyone. but all seems back to normal now. Me and man gone wrong and janovitch tried here about six years ago and lasted about half an hour without getting in a single building. So we decided to give it another crack last summer. So we made two trips over a few weeks to cover the site the best we could. We had two lovely days here uninterrupted which was nice. I have seen recent pics from here and it seems like its getting a bit of a battering from the locals now.</p><p>HMS Ganges was a training school for new recruits off the royal navy, it was known to be a hard and harsh place to be posted. built in 1905 it grew in size over the years training thousands of new recruits. All had to go up the mast in the middle of the parade ground. The mast is listed and quite a feature, sadly we could not get near it as security was parked right near it. The training school closed in the 1980's and was used right up until 1999 as a police training college. Rumours of it being knocked down and built into a new housing development have been going around for years, but still no work there yet.</p><p></p><p>The Pool</p><p></p><p>The swimming pool at Ganges is quite stunning. The pool is of Olympic style proportions, its built in an art deco style with lots off lovely white tiles everywhere.</p><p></p><p><a href="https://s1027.photobucket.com/user/Mikeymutt1972/media/2020%20new/HMS%20Ganges/IMG_8458_zpsbjqgfq8v.jpg.html" target="_blank"><img src="https://i1027.photobucket.com/albums/y336/Mikeymutt1972/2020%20new/HMS%20Ganges/IMG_8458_zpsbjqgfq8v.jpg" alt="" class="fr-fic fr-dii fr-draggable " style="" /></a></p><p></p><p><a href="https://s1027.photobucket.com/user/Mikeymutt1972/media/2020%20new/HMS%20Ganges/IMG_8427_zpsip96upf8.jpg.html" target="_blank"><img src="https://i1027.photobucket.com/albums/y336/Mikeymutt1972/2020%20new/HMS%20Ganges/IMG_8427_zpsip96upf8.jpg" alt="" class="fr-fic fr-dii fr-draggable " style="" /></a></p><p></p><p><a href="https://s1027.photobucket.com/user/Mikeymutt1972/media/2020%20new/HMS%20Ganges/IMG_8429_zps1ugioybw.jpg.html" target="_blank">[ATTACH=full]258055[/ATTACH]</a></p><p></p><p><a href="https://s1027.photobucket.com/user/Mikeymutt1972/media/2020%20new/HMS%20Ganges/IMG_8430_zpsklyd6mmz.jpg.html" target="_blank">[ATTACH=full]258056[/ATTACH]</a></p><p></p><p><a href="https://s1027.photobucket.com/user/Mikeymutt1972/media/2020%20new/HMS%20Ganges/IMG_8432_zps85k0r8ct.jpg.html" target="_blank">[ATTACH=full]258057[/ATTACH]</a></p><p></p><p><a href="https://s1027.photobucket.com/user/Mikeymutt1972/media/2020%20new/HMS%20Ganges/IMG_8433_zpsbs9mzw0x.jpg.html" target="_blank"><img src="https://i1027.photobucket.com/albums/y336/Mikeymutt1972/2020%20new/HMS%20Ganges/IMG_8433_zpsbs9mzw0x.jpg" alt="" class="fr-fic fr-dii fr-draggable " style="" /></a></p><p></p><p><a href="https://s1027.photobucket.com/user/Mikeymutt1972/media/2020%20new/HMS%20Ganges/IMG_8434_zps9elb6g1x.jpg.html" target="_blank"><img src="https://i1027.photobucket.com/albums/y336/Mikeymutt1972/2020%20new/HMS%20Ganges/IMG_8434_zps9elb6g1x.jpg" alt="" class="fr-fic fr-dii fr-draggable " style="" /></a></p><p></p><p><a href="https://s1027.photobucket.com/user/Mikeymutt1972/media/2020%20new/HMS%20Ganges/IMG_8436_zps3u12picu.jpg.html" target="_blank">[ATTACH=full]258058[/ATTACH]</a></p><p></p><p><a href="https://s1027.photobucket.com/user/Mikeymutt1972/media/2020%20new/HMS%20Ganges/IMG_8437_zpsifakd6ds.jpg.html" target="_blank">[ATTACH=full]258059[/ATTACH]</a></p><p></p><p><a href="https://s1027.photobucket.com/user/Mikeymutt1972/media/2020%20new/HMS%20Ganges/IMG_8440_zpsvjyaj6u0.jpg.html" target="_blank">[ATTACH=full]258060[/ATTACH]</a></p><p></p><p><a href="https://s1027.photobucket.com/user/Mikeymutt1972/media/2020%20new/HMS%20Ganges/IMG_8441_zpsuhyf808s.jpg.html" target="_blank">[ATTACH=full]258061[/ATTACH]</a></p><p></p><p><a href="https://s1027.photobucket.com/user/Mikeymutt1972/media/2020%20new/HMS%20Ganges/IMG_8442_zps3ilogd0u.jpg.html" target="_blank">[ATTACH=full]258062[/ATTACH]</a></p><p></p><p>Some sort off office away from the pool area. this then leads to the pump rooms and maintenance area.

[QUOTE="Mikeymutt, post: 361923, member: 30366"] It feels like ages since I posted anything. What with time and mainly issues with photobucket resizing all my images to freezing my account up and losing all the pics for weeks. it was a worldwide problem for everyone. but all seems back to normal now. Me and man gone wrong and janovitch tried here about six years ago and lasted about half an hour without getting in a single building. So we decided to give it another crack last summer. So we made two trips over a few weeks to cover the site the best we could. We had two lovely days here uninterrupted which was nice. I have seen recent pics from here and it seems like its getting a bit of a battering from the locals now. HMS Ganges was a training school for new recruits off the royal navy, it was known to be a hard and harsh place to be posted. built in 1905 it grew in size over the years training thousands of new recruits. All had to go up the mast in the middle of the parade ground. The mast is listed and quite a feature, sadly we could not get near it as security was parked right near it. The training school closed in the 1980's and was used right up until 1999 as a police training college. Rumours of it being knocked down and built into a new housing development have been going around for years, but still no work there yet. The Pool The swimming pool at Ganges is quite stunning. The pool is of Olympic style proportions, its built in an art deco style with lots off lovely white tiles everywhere.
