I finally got round to finally getting into the grove air-raid shelter after failing a few times before in 2019 & 2020 ( believe it or not I was stood next to just didn't believe it was them ) why my panter and daughter waited outside I took a nose inside - I have to say I'm not a fan of being in locations on my own anymore - I was surprised though how big this place was from the outside it just looks like a small common air-raid shelter.


I can't really find much online about these air-raid shelters, apart from that they had a code name "Project X" and the shelter was apparently built in December 1941 made up of all different shapes and sizes - it said that there was only one surviving block left.


over all the explore was a look little explore.

our first stop of the day was this lovely little chapel located in the middle of nowhere, the chapel is grade 2 listed and looked after by  Friends of Friendless Churches. it is said the church backdate to around the 16th century 
the chapel inside is very open and has lots of space but also very dark and spooky, we spent about 40 mins in here taking photos and videos of the place. 
if you passing through the area does have a look at this little chapel.

Reigate fort is located in Surrey , it is siad that reigate fort is one of the fort is said to be built in the 1890's but by the 1906 it was no longer needed - it one of the many forts built along a north down.

Our trip to the fort was a last-minute thing as we were going past it on our way home, so we thought we stop off and have a look


as normal it started to rain on us with the little explore - All the building are locked up by managed to put my phone through the bars to get pictures of inside the buildings - National trust do open days of the site apparently but haven't seen anything to do with the fort having open day in about 2/3 years so not sure on what happens on that


the fort itself is an interesting little look around with plenty of information bored explaining about the fort.
