Report - Shoreham Cement Works, Revisit - July 2024

[Landie_Man]

So as we come to the end of another year; this was my last proper explore this year; its been such a slow one for various reasons, but I'm gonna try and get out there again soon before the end of the year! I've had a lot of other things on this year but I am still raring to go. This was a nice little revisit of a site I did back in May 2021, and by God has this one decayed in that time! It's so much worse now and LETHAL inside, so if you are inexperienced in exploring, mind your step!

Shoreham Cement Works, Sussex - May 2021 The Explore So after two successes in and around Canterbury; myself and @Dragon_Urbex retired nice and early after a Fish and Chip dinner, and went to sleep around 9pm for the next days outing. It was a big one, an old favourite from the urbex...

This was also the explore which claimed one of my Nifty Fifty 50mm Lenses which fell out of my coat pocket, and about 80ft onto solid concrete; where it literally exploded!

I think we mostly know the history of this one. It closed in 1991 and is really showing it all around. I managed to get onto the roof this visit which was a nice bonus. I saw a lot from here which I didn't see first time round; such as the inside of one of the kilns. It really has quite a nice vibe to it; and forgive the goon term "apocalyptic" to a degree; though it does have a fair bit of graff.

Great work, still havent done this myself, I thought on last report people were saying this is now impossible

 

[Mikeymutt]

Nice to see this again mate. Bet them walkways around the kilns are getting a bit sketchy now.

Neither have I haha. Put it off for years. Drove past it in the summer and it looked even more impressive than the impression you can get from pictures. Truly an abandoned monster it seemed!

Utterly lethal. But a sight to see!

It is well worth doing. It's a lovely vibe!

Always surprised how well this place has held on, considering how long it has been out of use.
Nice pics, the motor hall is such a nice area here.

Nice update. A few areas I haven't seen before. The decay is stunning and those lights. 👍

Wtf, not even a shitty little fence surrounding it?

You should have a fall next time, could surely make a claim.

If you discount the fence along the main road and the quarry with the fence surrounding it that is. The grounds are used by a haulage company so fencing everything off would be awkward for them.

Always nice to see this pop up, another one of those classic sites I'd love to do but never got round to it. Nice pictures.

Nicely captured mate. Really wish I popped in here when I was working down there. The traffic around it put me off though being in my works van :-(

I know. You’d expect it to have caved in on itself. The motor area is right by seccas patrol so you’ve gotta be prepared to duck down as he passes.

Great report mate, nice to see it again

Thanks mate. Don’t mind a bit of this one!

Thank you! It really is nice isn’t it.

Oh there is bits. And also a small amount of climbing. But nothing awful.

Exactly. It’s not like there isn’t anything at all. But yeah grounds are in use!

Do it. Before it’s gone.

Always the way mate. But it’s worth a pop!
