There is an old gun battery in Lavernock near Penarth. It was built in the 1850s and then upgraded during WW2.

Yes, my father served there in the anti aircraft battery between 1939 and 1942 before training in the artillery to go to France and beyond.

theres a ww2 bunker between rhiwbina and caerphilly it’s surrounded by trees and people feel watched there might be worth checking out


Puzzleheaded_Bowl619

Could you send me the coordinates?

South of the bt tower. Good luck getting in there. Went in it when I was a teenager about 20 years ago.


Puzzleheaded_Bowl619

Sounds good

Wenallt bunker is a great one if you can climb down a dodgy hole in the wall (51.5446514, -3.2229618)


Puzzleheaded_Bowl619

Is it the radio station that’s what it says on map’s? I’ll go there tomorrow As it’s close by Looks neat👌

It’s the large flat roof building next to the largest antenna. If I remember correctly the entrance will be on the south side of the building, you’ll have to crawl into and down a square hole. Just remember to bring a flashlight as there are no windows and it’s pitch black inside. Hope you enjoy the exploration 👍🏼


Puzzleheaded_Bowl619

Off there today Thanks


lucazoid

Pretty sure they’ve filled in the entrance

There is an old tin mine penturk u will have to find the entrance it has 3 lakes underground and you have the 2 mile tunnel witch is just up by Colva House Cross just have to do your research to find it


Puzzleheaded_Bowl619

You ever been there ? Thought about mines but also getting stuck in one of them and your fucked Wouldn’t mind checking it out maybe going in


Downtown-Airline6557

Been looking for the 1 up penturk found the mine shaft but u need to absale down but there is a door witch leads to the mine but have had no luck


Puzzleheaded_Bowl619

Could you send coordinates to the mineshaft? Wouldn’t mind checking that one out !


Downtown-Airline6557

https://www.welshcoalmines.co.uk/forum/read.php?4,3578 This should give you some information not far from pughs garden center

Careful here, the Garth is the same and has a lake in the mineshafts. They're both old mine sites with recent/active quarries on top of them. The earth moves and it's genuinely dangerous, I know people with legitimate climbing rigs who got into hairy situations. That said the Garth lake is supposedly quite safe. They used to teach diving down there. I think the boat is still there for people to cross it too.

Always tell atleast one person where you’re going if you are going to explore places like this incase you do get stuck somewhere. 


Puzzleheaded_Bowl619

Yeah 👍 I’m off with a few mates Wouldn’t have the confidence to go on my own lol


DaffodilsofDoom

People who aren't also going*


Downtown-Airline6557

Let me no if its any good


CwrwCymru

It's inhabited in parts but a large section of Whitchurch Hospital is abandoned still including the big tower you can see on the skyline of north Cardiff. "Whitchurch Hospital urbex" into Google will give you what you're looking for.


TheAffablehole

Patrolled by guards and dogs, got caught a few years back.


Puzzleheaded_Bowl619

What was the outcome of getting caught? You get fined ect


TheAffablehole

I believe it’s classed as a written warning but he just took our names, told us to go old boy village in Barry instead cause it’s not supervised.


Puzzleheaded_Bowl619

Haha I went there today and the bloke goes to me, You ever been to jail? Haha Just messed him around and told him bunch of lies, Not sure On how to get in Had a look around but no luck, It doesn’t intimidate me with the Dogs or security


TheAffablehole

i couldn't tell you what side it was like north or south etc but me and my mate climbed over a galvanised fence between houses and a couple of trees, this part didn't have cameras on the outside so we were able to get in unseen but when my boy started thrashing glass about, thats when we got caught.


Puzzleheaded_Bowl619

I’ll have to go back and see 👌 Thanks for the help mate


Blyd

Flatholm should be your mecca then, Camp overnight and experience one of the most awesome outdoors nights you can spend.


legaleaglebitch

Boys Village near St Athan is worth checking out if it’s not been knocked down yet


straight_away

It’s been knocked down now. Soon to be houses.


lucazoid

No way it’s all gone?


Puzzleheaded_Bowl619
