Just driving by my gf spotted it, so I went by to take some snap shots. There's a couple ways in, i just had a quick wander around the 5 buildings, though this is all I had time to snap as I was omw somewhere.

I couldn’t find a great deal online talking about the history of the site but I did get this: The Clay Factory originally started life as a china clay works at the turn of the 1900’s – the clay was pumped down to the site from Dartmoor for drying and processing before being transported by train...

Today I decided to pay darkies tunnel a visit with two non 28D members. I don’t have any pictures of the end as sadly my phone battery got too low, but I thought what I had was still worthy of a report. Darkies tunnel (otherwise know as devonport and ford) is two disused railway tunnels that...

I came across this site yesterday with a friend of mine. Sadly, I have virtually no information as I can’t find anything on the internet about it. It’s a building with 3 floors with the entrance being on the roof. Each floor has plenty of different rooms which still have equipment in. Sorry the...

Don’t have any history on this one I’m afraid. Went before and was boarded up, came again recently as going past and could get access. It was an old school house, not very big. It had two entrances at each end of the building which would of been separate entrances for boys and girls. Outside...

Leigham Tunnel also known as Cann tunnel was an old tramway tunnel built early 1820’s. It is 620 yards long and pretty straight. In WW2 it would of been used as an air raid shelter to hold 3000 people. I didn’t get a great picture but at half way point was a couple of small rooms that would of...

This once stunning holiday resort has since seen better days, having been a family run hotel, it went out of business in 2012. After painstakingly weaseling in through a tiny window that had just recently been pried off, we found ourselves in the basement. There are so many stunning shots to be...

oh boy this was a fun one, the location just on the edge of Seaton in Devon is absolutely massive. with a lobby and bar, stage on the top floor, and roof access, as well as a separate building with a basketball court and what appeared to be a racketball court, all brilliantly covered with...

Came across this one today by accident. It’s the second one I’ve found recently just by driving (for work), and also same old metal pre fab style farmhouse. No history with this I’m afraid. Found no clues inside or any paperwork. Main house was sadly empty just a few pieces of furniture and...

Seaton Heights Hotel in Seaton, Devon. It’s had planning from September 2013 to turn into houses. Obviously not much has gone on in 5 years. Plenty more graffiti and smashed glass and much more overgrown. There is a post on this site from 2014 which said reason being delayed was because of bats...

Managed to get to this one today. Very grateful to DrGonzo for the heads up on this one. Has been posted before recently. Amazing views from this house of the Tamar Valley. You have the main house and one large outbuilding split into 3 sections. The rooms in the house are good size, even the...

I’m sorry I don’t have any info on this one. Been abandoned for some years. Floor fragile and broke in places. Roof of outbuilding collapsed. Train Carriage out the back sadly rotting away. Kitchen Lounge Dining Room Union Jack paint job throughout Hallway and Bathroom Outbuilding...

Went to this one last night but recently all boarded up tight so only pictures of outside I’m afraid. No cameras but security lights for night time. If you had a ladder could of got access through upstairs window. They even blocked up all the outbuildings. Might try another day. Built approx...
