Not too sure if a persevered ruin of a chimney stack counts as interesting though 🙂

Not a real ruin but a folly. St David's in Cottingley Woods.

Only old lumps of industrial archaeology round here (although there are apparently some Bronze Age cairns in the woods too but I haven't found them yet).

Western side of Loch Etive, close to the bothy - Easter a couple of years ago.

(Oops, sorry - missed the 'local ride' caveat!)

@GlasgowDan, where exactly is that, I feel i should know it

Found this on the beach today, don't usually venture onto the sand.

Across the River from me, Queen Victoria Country Park, an ex War Hospital, can be seen from Southampton Water..

[img] [/img]

And Knowle Hospital.
This was one of those Hospitals that unmarried Mothers went to when deemed "unsuitable for Marriage" Rumour has it 1500 or so graves are buried in the field below the old hospital, most have no name plaques and a lot has been desecrated by Fareham BC in their move to turn the old Hospital into a new housing development. Theres a meeting once a year to remember all those Women who were interned there and never left.. Very Sad.

@bikebouy - I assume you know the story of Netley, the wounded troops where unloaded there so that when the boats docked in Southampton the families there saw only healthy returning soldiers.

The best ruin on my local rides would have been the old cabin/shed after which the trail Deliverence was named on Leith Hill. It's collapsed now so just a pile of wood and corrugated metal.

Looks familiar from old walking trips. Is that Upper Swaledale (Reeth) area?

toofarwest - is that on the beach heading from Llanddwyn to Maltraeth?

No it's Pembrey, same place as the first pic in the battle on the beach story currently on the home page.

[quote=jerrys]Looks familiar from old walking trips. Is that Upper Swaledale (Reeth) area?

Just up the road from Reeth behind Calver hill, taken from the climb up towards Melbecks / Great Pinseat. If I was a better boy scout I'd be able to work out the grid reference!

Abandoned Hospital yards from house, place is riddled with Asbestos!

Llanthony Priory. Just across the fields from me

In context. Priory in the centre right and my gaff in the hazey distance to the left

not a ruin as such, but an old memorial in NW London

Ruins are awesome.

First class contributions guys.

Toofarwest- I work in Burry Port and live in Garnant. Have we met?

May have bumped into you in Brechfa at some point, you know Guy?
Nick (can't remember his surname) hails from your part of the world, he used to ride with Ken Gas and the fat boys when I first joined up with them.
I'm in Carmarthen and work in Clydach.

I know them well. Small world.

Two very nice old gate posts in the middle of a local wood, no clue as to what the gate was to.

I know them well. Small world.

But I wouldn't want to paint it 😀

If you see either of them mention Mickey to them (Guy's gone to USA now hasn't he?)
