This concrete bastard became a bit of a nemesis for Kn0xy & I, neither of us feeling we had quite finished this place until we'd seen the top of the chimney. At 650 ft, this is the 5th largest structure in Kent, not too shabby.
We returned, with our sole objective being to finally put this place to rest. Now we have, I can safely say I will NOT be returning. On the way out, I had a very close call with security, although not spotted, it kinda put things back into perspective. It's sometimes easy to forget what you're doing, and how 99% of humans view it. To us it's simple tresspass, to others it's burglary. It's easy to get complacent.
Anyway, we chose the vertical ladders, rather than the freshly safety ticketed lift, for fear of it alerting someone, being too loud, breaking down or something like that. Queue large amounts of huffing & swearing by the 3rd platform. Whoever was climbing first, would be kicking soot down for the next person to chew on. By the time we had reached the top and caught our breath, the laughing fits had stopped and it was time to take shit photos, I was knackered!
