Warnings:
These
places are not patrolled by security, etc. Be careful of
running into others.
These places are used for parties and
druggos sometimes. They are very well
known. Go in a big group.
DON'T go there to vandalise. Don't
start
destroying the place.
The rifle range is said to be in use on
Tuesdays, Saturdays and
Sundays during the day. Avoid these days. Night time
is fine all
the time.
Also take torches during the day as it gets pitch
black
underground.
On the 6th time down there we discovered an old vagrant
living in
the 1st building just after the 3 storey watch house. He is
used
to people going down there all the time. Just dont try and
destroy
his house as a member of one of our group did. (Good one
Santa!)
Equipment:
At least one torch each with good
batteries.
Comfortable shoes as there is a bit of walking to get there.
Description:
From Fishermans Rd, walk around the
heads (Take the cliff path
not the seaside one) till you can make a straight
line towards
the wind generator. North of the wind generator scout around
till
you find a trench with rail tracks in it. Jump in and start
walking
north. You will come across a 3 storey look out tower
with a cement arch over
the trench. A large room joins onto it
on your right just before the tower.
We found a ladies handbag
in this room. Go into the tower, stairs will greet
you with rooms
at every flight. Excellent views from the lookouts on the 2nd
and
3rd (top) stories.
