General - Dorset Urbex, old sites, prisons tunnels

[ClaireM]

Been urbexing the last week a couple asylums! Just waiting to get some posts together, heading down Dorset way near Dorcester, Weymouth looking for some places to see. Found a prison some WW2 tunnels but does anyone know more about them or places worth visiting?

Based out of Weymouth, theres quite a lot around here depending on transport. Had a look around RNCF Holton Heath recently which was pretty good, lots to see. Other places such as East Weare and DERA Bincleaves are decent, but security's been bumped up a little recently. There's a large ROTOR Nuclear Bunker underneath Fancy's Farm on Portland, but it's sadly sealed.

Dorset is pretty much dead. Awful for urbex. So glad I moved hahaha

Oi, Dorset's still got its heart OOO ARRH (':

I gotta admit, it's got quiet here. I'd love to have a look on the breakwaters but Portland Port aren't particularly friendly to folks that do.

Swanage Grammar School at back of the town towards Ullwell. Other than that and Holton Heath labs there isn't too much around.

I'm looking at Rampisham Down Comms centre in the near future

I never heard of the grammar school!!

I never went to Weymouth as I find it incredibly depressing. Will have to check the school out some time.

RNCF is fucked now and the reservoirs have been welded

Any ideas where the school is? Been looking for the place

Did you try Goggle? I put this in - “Swanage Grammar School address” and got this https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Swanage_Grammar_School

Then I clicked on the photo and it gave me a location.

Thank you! Got there in the end hahaha. Haven't been down this way for a while so just couldn't figure it out
