Memories: Bailey Mill, Delph

[Nothingtonobody]

Here are a series of photographs from my exploration of Bailey Mill in Delph. I remember when this building was burnt down so it was interesting to revisit the past. This is definitely one of my favourite explores so far. This was my most ambitious explore in which I challenged myself to something more physical; this was a test of trust and an exercise of bravery. I had to clamber over rubble, climb over scorched remains and lift myself up a makeshift chute to access the second floor. It was absolutely worth it. I will forever cherish these memories and look back on them fondly. I wish I could relive this moment. We were spotted by cyclists when we were exploring the second floor so I decided to wave enthusiastically. I did receive some rather strange and skeptical looks, haha. This place was very dilapidated and destroyed, but it was fascinating to rummage through the remains. Overall, an exhilarating and memorable explore that I will never forget. Please forgive my lack of photography skills.

A nice selection for the first set of pictures you put up. We all have our explores which we remember with excitement and fondness. Keep going, you'll pick up local people to go with soon

Thank you so much! I appreciate your kind words. Hopefully I will improve with time. I’m looking forward to meeting some local people to explore with! I really want to continue my exploring journey.

What a great set of photos! I can't actually tell if these have been edited to look like film or where shot using a film camera, either way I love the 5th photo. The sky in that is stunning.
