I had visited here last year but I lost my photos from here when I lost a whole batch of them. So i made a revisit last month to rephotograph it. Big thanks to Dan who found this one. It’s hidden well in some boggy woodland. As Dan said in his report history is really hard to find on this one. It’s a shell of a pump house now with just the lower brick walls remaining. I wonder if the upper half was originally wooden and it slowly rotted and was taken away, or the wood repurposed elsewhere. It does have some remaining machinery inside with some wheels and rods. Some empty concrete plinths what hosted some more machinery. I think it might have been to do with Westwick House which owned the land around here. There use to be an old cottage the other side of the land what belonged to the gamekeeper many years ago and one I visited years ago. The pump house is quite a size when stood in it and bigger than it looks in photos. I would have loved to have seen it intact with all the machinery in it. But it’s still overly to see just sitting there peacefully in woodland.

Some old outlet pipes away from the pump house.

Lovely set mate, you did the place justice. Even though it's ruined it has a certain charm for sure, and the surrounding woodland is quite nice too, it could be a good fungi location for autumn perhaps being quite damp.

Thank you mate. I think it's got a lovely charm about it and enjoyed both visits. First visit I carried on through to some open areas that had loads of butterflies. I reckon you could be right about a good fungi ground.
