This is the original video of the shelter. I do have a more in depth video that runs for 45 mins, I'll upload it when I get time. I first discovered the shelter in 1985.

where behind in bouverie street are we talking! i got the otheres facing the railway (theres 3 but 1 is bricked up) but didnt know of any behind it! also there IS a 4th entrance we discovered that CAN be accessed, but further investigation is required by the urbex team hahaha

[stuboatman71]

@markybhoy2003 there is a 4th but you'll need a jcb to clear the undergrowth :)

[markybhoy2003]

@stuboatman71 hi mate, the jcb must have been then as we could access it very easily, my freind said finding it was the hard part right enough! however once inside their is partial flooding but you can get in far enough to work out where its leads to, but wellies would be required to go any further iam afraid! ive got the footage and will put it on our page :)

[stuboatman71]

@markybhoy2003 I know of all the entrances mate, I'm just playing it down so no kids go down there & gets hurt or stranded ;)

[markybhoy2003]

@stuboatman71 good point mate, the kids wanted to come but we didnt allow it for that reason ;) out of curiosity do you know of any other hidden places other than the shelters, got the exploring head on :)

[stuboatman71]

@markybhoy2003 I've got a 45 minute video of us scouring every part of it, it has 5 chambers and about 30ft under solid rock. I retreived some nice artifacts from down there too ;) I'll post it up one day I have a spare 15 hrs....

[markybhoy2003]

@stuboatman nice one man, we did see some old equipment but could only get so far! btw wheres the 5th chamber, if you dont wanna say on here for fear of any kids getting ideas i could ive you email address if thats cool with you bud!

Awrite m8, used to play in the ropeworks and the buildings next to it before they where knocked down when I was a boy.From the ropeworks we used to go under the railway where there were rooms which led to the waste ground where Lidl is now. If i can remember it looked like there were 3 maybe 4 entrances to the shelter stretched across a wall about the bridth of Bouverie Street above and behind it, which goes to show the scale of it. Dont think i ever reached the bottom of the stairs, too dark

@StivBhoy If your torch batteries run out you are in serious trouble, it's blacker than black down there.
