 RAF Warboys - HF Radio site

Date : January 

Location : Canbridgeshire 

Delmoished - No 

This was our second exploration of the day, located just about 5 minutes up the road from the previous site we visited. Initially, we thought this was the medical center, but as soon as we entered, we quickly realized it was not. After checking the eDOB maps, we found out it is a communication center. Although the site is small, it is still a pretty cool little location. Despite being covered in graffiti, it retains a lot of its original features.

Strangely enough, I can't seem to find much information about this place. All I know is that it was part of RAF Warboys.

RAF Wyton Photographic Factory - Cambridgeshire,

 RAF Wyton Photographic Factory

Date : January

Location Cambridgeshire,

Delmoished No

This was our first exploration of the day, and we had about four or five locations planned in total. When we arrived, we thought the place was sealed, but after snooping around, we found a way in. My daughter, my friend, and I walked around inside, and my friend explained how much it has changed over the past year. The site is in an extremely sorry state, but it was pretty cool to see. What made the place semi-spooky was the sound of someone clay shooting in the distance, which echoed throughout the entire building.

The factory was built around the 1950s and was the first of its kind in the UK. It housed the Bomber Command's photographic reconnaissance squadron, located slightly away from the airfield. The site was intended to carry out reconnaissance before and after strikes to help support nuclear V-bombs.

It was designed to process film taken from planes using darkrooms. The facility was operational until around the 1990s when it closed down due to advancements in camera technologh

Reinden Wood ( MOD Woodlands ) - Kent

 Reiden Woods 

Date - December 

Location  - kent 

Demolished  - No 

For my last exploration of 2024, I visited Reiden Woods. Walking through these woods was incredibly peaceful, and I truly appreciated the calm surroundings. I found it particularly interesting that there are numerous information boards that explain the various features of the area. Even though this is Ministry of Defence land, they have opened up a footpath for visitors to wander through the woods.

What initially drew me to these woods was the air raid shelter. I spoke to a local who mentioned that there are all kinds of fascinating things scattered around. Unfortunately, I couldn't access all the areas I wanted to explore because some parts were closed off.

St Margaret - hucking

 St Margaret 

Date  December 

location: Kent

Demolished: No 

This was a random little adventure I had with my 4-year-old. I have to say, I was not impressed with the fog that rolled in, as it made it difficult to see anything. However, the church itself was really pretty, and it even had a Christmas tree still set up. The church is quite beautiful.

 

It is said that this church dates back to around norman times, but it was restored in 1870.
