New Member From Canterbury, Kent.

[Exploring With Oliver]

Hello everyone.

I am writing this introduction to say hello.

I have been exploring for around 2 and a half years and I have explored quite a few sites.

I am very passionate about history, so I enjoy researching the history of the places that I have explored.

I am from Canterbury, Kent, and I am currently looking for more people in my local area that I can explore and exchange locations with.

Thank you.

Any questions then do ask. Hopefully you’ll manage to link up with someone in a similar position in your area in due course.

What's the current state of the odeon after the fire - much damage?
Very much on the want list!

The fire was super tiny and it only left a tiny mark in the reception area. The buildings mostly sealed off as far as I can see appart from a tiny air vent. I think that it's definitely still worth an explore even though the Canterbury youth have trashed it mostly.
If you do go in, keep in mind secca and the old bill are keeping a close eye on the place.

Also from Canterbury - but not been out for a good 10 years, life, family and kids all took priority - been itching to get out again, so if you're doing anything interesting and fancy some company drop me a message!

Heya I'm also near Canterbury, it might be interesting to have a group outing. Apologies for the late reply, I never made my own introduction post! I'm also constantly researching the places I explore, it's fascinating to know that they had a life beyond just urbex & ruins.

Yes, that sounds okay.

There's a couple of explores in Canterbury, there is the old NHS Building just out of town towards the duel carriageway. Also the o0ld Odeon cinema needs checking out. Might have to do a little climb to find a suitable entrance.

Hall Place Enterprise Centre is an Edwardian University building, it's only worth looking round once at the historical parts as it's so trashed now as it's location has been passed round more than a joint at a party, and theres also an angry squatter in there who chases after people with a metal pole. St Martins Hospital I still need to revisit but it's so hard to crack now, I sent two of my mates down there the other day to try and get in but the security nearly caught them.
