Where? Corsham, Wiltshire. Comments 22. Posted 18 December 2008.
HMS Royal Arthur was one of the Royal Navy's shore establishments - similar to HMS Ganges but on a smaller scale. The site at Corsham opened in 1947 after moving from Skegness (the Butlins holiday camp was used during WW2). The Corsham site finally closed in 1993...
A few years ago there was "news" that the site would be converted into retirement homes - nothing seems to have happened with that plan though. Nowadays it sits empty, and seems to be a practice ground for Bristol/Bath's graffiti artists.
I didn't get many photos of the buildings, maybe I'll revisit in the future...
Where? Longcross, Surrey. Comments 5. Posted 2 October 2007.
Longcross Barracks closed in 2000. Nearby was a military test/research site but they weren't directly associated with the barracks.
Not a very interesting explore, this one. Just a few buildings, all stripped out. I imagine it is a bit like exploring an old TravelLodge or something.
