This was another local find of mine last year, although it's not that impressive - it was still a local wander though and hasn't been documented on here before so here we go, in it's underwhelming entirety.

There's precious little information about this place, it occupies a very sizeable plot of land on the western edge of the village of Longworth in West Oxfordshire. It has been closed since at least 2016, when a planning application to develop the land into 13 houses was refused by the local council on numerous grounds, some of which sound decidedly 'NIMBYish' - for instance that such development might encourage more houses to be built in the vicinity, that there are too few facilities, and that the development might affect the listed properties that border the site.

So it sits as a derelict plot of land in the village as of this day with nothing done to it so far.

An easy explore, there wasn't much to it - one large warehouse type building, a static caravan and a few things in the bushes, most of the site is taken up by the space previously occupied by the polytunnels and such for the plants. The most fun part was climbing up a wobbly unstable stack of plastic plant trays to get through the window of the building to be honest, there was a somewhat decent but dark storage room/workshop to poke around in too.

That is a very VERY dusty respirator, still probably works just fine though, those filters aren’t cheap

Seems like a decent wander though, would be a good find on a walk
