Report - Brinksway Air raid shelter - Stockport Feb17

[albino-jay]

Brief bit of history as they have been covered many many many times.


Opened in 1939, the shelters were the largest purpose-built civilian air raid shelters in the country designed to provide shelter for up to 3,850 people. They were extended in 1940-41 to accommodate 6,500.


3 different shelters dug into the sandstone in order of size


Chestergate which is a museum

Brinksway

Dodgehill


Visited with @Lissyfit for a quick something to do one night.


Was actually good to go back here after last going in them around 2008. Not much has changed, just a bit more shit graff and rubbish.


This was my entrance last time I was down here, now very sealed. Not that it would matter for me as I don't think I'd get down it now

Well arn't forums for helping people out tips advice info!!! If the place is completely sealed and patrolled! It would be a wasted journey wouldn't it !

I also have an inactive email on here from over 5 years ago,which is why I created a new account!

Thanks for nothing

Forums are a place to intereact and become part of a community.

Before asking for advice, specifically access details give a little back even if it is just general replies to topics. Become active on the forum and you will get a better response.

I get messages like this nearly everyday lately.

So thank you for nothing. Actually.
