    Default derelict trading estate

    I found this place in Roden just outside Telford. The water tower caught my eye and when I pulled in found this abandoned trading estate.
    The derelict greenhouses are pretty awesome, they are huge buildings and there are row upon row of them.....all overgrown and decayed.
    Further in were a couple of rusting grain silo's and back to the road entrance where one of the buildings is apparently used as a St Johns ambulance station.

    The greenhouses














    The signs on the door claim this is a St John's ambulance station

    The first water tower looks very RAF, and with the concrete roadway in the 3rd picture, old airfield maybe?
    In the future they will say The Royal Air what ???
