[Wanderingmellon]

They may have been mine. Wheels off job to squeeze it past machinary, but made mooching around a breeze.

I'm sure someone had a monkey bike in there too.

We just opened to door hopton side and rode in lol

The secca told us that there's two at one end, and one at the other with both protected with PIRs. Apparently we just happened to turn up when the guy on the one man part, away from Middleton, had nipped to have a cuppa with the other two. I'm skepticle

I'very only seen them sat in a portacabin at the Middleton side, I can't see why someone would be based at the Hopton end

It would be a long shift sat in your van all day, waiting for those pesky urban explorers
It does have a PIR there, and it's fucking loud. Seems pointless placing a PIR and secca there. The PIR is also linked to a control centre, hence why secca appeared so quickly.

We took the piss for years and I can understand the response if I'm being totally honest.

We had some top meets though

Still possible to get in though if you wanted a bit of a mission.

At the Middleton end the roof has fallen in in a few places leaving access from above. Would not be hard at all to drop down through. The holes are near the big coveyor on the way down towards the Middleton entrance\exit .also have an idea of another way but not 100% sure on that one
