Spode works, Stoke on Trent

So, as stated in my other post, the majority of the site was out of bounds... however after some investigation there did appear to be two buildings full of interesting-ness that we could sneak into... the first was a disappointment as only the upper floor could be accessed (which was empty)

the second one proved of much more interest... access was found to the building showing the ovens on my earlier post (taken through holes in the glass, that one).... so after some deliberation I was to go in whilst my accomplice BUK was to generally keep watch and keep the security occupied should the need arose....

oh yeah, some pics! (please bear in mind that these were taken at high iso- no tripod for ease of movement and mobility! and hurried, as time was against us, maybe in the space of 15 mins or so)

.... by this point I'd spied some cellars (or at least some stairs heading downwards at any rate) so I headed over to them only to spy a miniature courtyard affair through an open doorway with an open door into another building! (behind the original building I'd entered)..

Just as I was pressing the shutter on this picture I had a phone call to say get your arse into gear (or words to that effect)

but there was still more to see..

it was by this stage that I realised I hadn't been taking notice of where I was going, the whole place looked the same, was a rabbits warren of corridors and stuff and that I was totally lost!

I did however, manage an exit that wasn't the same as the entry and a different location... but only after slipping over in my haste!

finally, I did this as an experiment..

Thank you and goodnight, you've been a wonderful audience

I had to distract the security guard (by talking to him) so he didn't go patrolling
