Urban Exploration

Any of you bros into urban exploration?

Quote by WikiUrban exploration (often shortened as urbex or UE) is the examination of the normally unseen or off-limits parts of urban areas or industrial facilities.


Got some sites to do soon, just wondering if anyone else took part or not.


Me at some sites we've done (only local, old houses, probably worth £500,000 each if they were repaired).

Hoping to go to meez's place to do a few sites over summer or something too. I can supply full picture galleries, if anyone is interested. However I do not have a DSLR, so the photos aren't great.

Some more photos I like:

I only went once back in 2007. It was more of a "who has bigger balls" because there was some dark rumours about that place, some of which are true. (Drug users use it to get their fix ect!)

We bottled it in the dark and went back 2 days later.The only snaps I got were of me and my ex on my old phone. If I find my phone ill send them on because this place was ingreat condition and its apperntly in good nick now. (no chav's wrecking it or anything) its just general wear and tear from such an old building.

Yeah, the houses I visited had chavs in (prior to boarding them up), found a sleeping bag in the first one.

If your ever down in Surrey go to Epsom Mental asylm. Its abandoned and it honestly reminds me of 28 days later where a hospital has been left almost un-touched. Desks and bed still in there. Creapy as fuck at night!

Had to make some sort of musicvideo for school some years ago, we went to an old complex where old ppl used to live. Smashed the whole place , kicking off the sinks, mirror, throwin chairs through the windows etc. Was alot of fun :D

Judging by your pants it's extremely rewarding.
