So I'm relatively new to urbex, but I have explored a few locations around my area and know some details about history, so I thought I would start doing reports of what I know. This was the first explore I did other than a few pillboxes, but it was definitely interesting nether less.
The Explore
The site is located fairly near to public footpaths, but has coverage so cannot be seen from them. Whilst small, the site is interesting to explore, as many of the old electronics still remain. Unfortunately the site has become a frequent to vandals and is usually occupied by a fair amount of litter. There is one main area with a smaller room to the side, and various remains of golfing structures littered around the area. Secca is practically non existent and access is easy, so it's a great site for newcomers such as myself.
The history
The site used to be a golf club, however it was constructed on a landfill site. Many golfers complained of rubbish coming out from the ground while playing, and eventually the site was deemed unfit for building. The club officially closed its doors on 20th July 2019. Plans were proposed to renovate the site / reuse the land, however due to the landfill and mass appeal from
the public, no further plans have been made as of yet.
