If you want a proper ex-military site with a sinister past, then this place is easily visible.

http://maps.google.co.uk/maps?f=q&so...37894&t=h&z=15

It's the site at Misson Springs in S. Yorks where huge rockets were trained on Russia during the Cold War, sitting there ready to have the red button pushed should the need arise. It's now the Head Office of a company who trade in ex-military vehicles, you can see them all lined up ready for sale.

You could be right mate... We were there last week when we stayed at my sisters. And the beach was clear.. Not a 'log' in sight. Just Grunty and the hounds

If we're posting up weird places...this isn't so much weird, but I've always wondered why they need some many random squares of concrete.

Ah, and Dixon Rd is gated.

That's called Morcambe Bay


This is what an underground weapons storage facility looks like:
