During my time as a stock investor, I read a lot trying to unravel the secrets of what to buy. I was told there were two distinct types, 'Cyclical' and 'Defensive'.
Defensive stocks were boring and predictable whereas Cyclical were for the more daring, but could produce larger gains.
So why has this provider of food products which is considered 'Defensive' left this errr… mighty fine looking building.
I could not use the actual main building as the cover shot as it's too bloody ugly. Further within the grounds, we discovered this overgrown house that maybe the directors worked from.
I don't want to name this company as there are things of value left inside. You can probably work out where it is if you are not one of the 85 IQ brigade.
We had to dump the car half a mile away and walk a country lane to get to the entrance of this ‘Defensive Distributor Wreckage’.
Another house was close-by but I think we managed to sneak in the grounds without anyone seeing.
This gatehouse type of building was named 'bungalow' by its previous occupants.
Plenty of junk left behind, and maybe confidential material within those folders.
If you can’t get through the door, you can always walk through it?
Leaving the bungalow we approached the large main building which looked exceedingly ugly. Can you guess how I got in?
Did they just up their tools and leave? It amazes me how much shit gets left behind.
Ever get lines at school?.... 'I will not smash the classroom up and piss all over the floor' x 300. That book reminded me of those lines.
The thieves have been here for the copper wiring of course.
That paper sign refused to stick properly and be photographed.
Was this a call centre, done in the old style?
Just look at that - a doughnut still in the bag. Yum..
Even here there’s a bunch of clothes, where do they come from? Did everyone get naked before they bailed?
I have worked in so many office environments just like this one in the past.
Some evidence of other explorers signing their name. I know of 'peakys'.
Those desks must be worth a bit, they are used everywhere.
Is that water or piss? It looked seriously discoloured.
Everything you need for coffee or tea, even milk... albeit a little sour.
This seemed like an exec office, reports from past years.
We found a pigeon desperately trying to escape around this area. It kept banging into the glass until we coaxed it out through a big open hole in the wall.
Balances sheets through the ages; all left behind for anyone to inspect.
Having been inside the larger building, we approached the one I used as the cover shot.
The house was in a bad state, with a leaky roof being the culprit.
Server cabinets are expensive items, even with no rack equipment left.
I do wonder what happened here. Everything left behind, more so than the larger building.
This would make for a great detached family home if the roof could be fixed and it's not left to rot for years.
The warehouse area is the only part we didn't take a lot of notice of. It was accessible but was getting late and the darkness was drawing in.
Someone is seriously addicted and left all their substances behind.
That building needs a good scrub. What a messy-looking place for prospective visitors.
It was a good ending to the day and a large explore. We must have spent over an hour roaming around and saw nobody.
Other explorers I have spoken to have mentioned there have been thugs here smashing it up when they arrived. It doesn't surprise me.
