There have been one or two places that have been top of my UE to-do list for well over a year but lack of transport have made them difficult. Firmly at the top of that list is what I can only describe as the UK Mecca of industrial urbex. I have a particular affinity for big machinery, pipes and all things oily so I am chuffed to say that I was recently able to make a long-overdue visit to the National Gas Turbine Establishment (AKA Pyestock).

Although I cant go into detail, certain aspects of the security (actually, all of them) made getting inside a long-winded and difficult affair but we were very glad to finally get into the grounds and found our way into a number of the lesser photographed buildings. We had to eventually leave having only seen about 1/4 of the buildings so a revisit is in order I think - soon if demolition rumours are to be believed!

I decided to give my shots a vintage feel which I am sure will divide opinion but, if you want the same unedited shots there are dozens of other reports available covering that base. Now, on with the shots...

Good stuff.

Someone's nicked the corners of your photos though.
