Upnor Castle

As a local resident, I had never visited Upnor Castle, so I decided to finally make the trip. It was a lovely day, and since I’m a member of English Heritage, entry was free; otherwise, there is a small admission fee. The fort itself is small but pleasant to explore. Upnor Castle is considered a rare example of an Elizabethan artillery fort. It was built in 1559 but was redeveloped between 1599 and 1601. The fort was constructed to help protect the warships at Chatham Docks, though it ultimately failed to do so in 1667.

Abandoned BCB Garage - Dover

BCB Garage - Dover 

Date:   March 2019

Location: Dover

Public or Abandoned: Abandoned

Demolished:  No

We were passing through Dover - so we thought we give this place another check over and to our surprise it was open after failing it back in 2017 & 2018 - as we went inside and had a look around to see what the place look liked,  have to say was pretty surprised how big the building is due to fact on the outside it looked very small -  There was nothing left inside other than an empty shell but it was still interesting to see 

There is not much history on this Old BCB garage in Dover, All we know about this garage is that it was family-run,  the shop was run for over 48 years before it closed its doors back in 2015,
