Yes, I lived in Redcar for a short time and used to pop down to South Gare occasionally.

The photo opportunities are even better if you drive deeper into the complex, but you usually get somebody telling you that you shouldn't be there (which of course, you shouldn't!).

I was considering using it as an industrial backdrop for some I want of my own car, but I've opted for location closer to North Tyneside so that the car isn't filthy by the time I get there!

ive got some good locations in mind ..as they say ...watch this space ...the pics will be coming very soon<G>

Rockingham village is very picturesque, loads of thatched cottages.

Good point about Delaval Hall.

It's an incredibly important building too.  Built by Sir John Vanburgh in 1718 and still the home of the 22nd Lord Hastings.

The history is immense.  The Delaval family came over from France with William of Normandy in 1066!  They settled in Northumberland towards 1100 and in 1102 they built a small church called "The Church of our Lady" - and it is still in use in use today as a private chapel!

It took 10 years to build the Hall.

However, what few people know is that it was Vanburgh who built it.  Bearing in mind he was responsible for Blenheim Palace and Castle Howard you get some idea of how important Delaval Hall is. 

He died 2 years before the Hall was finished, so it remains his last great work.

 

 

I reckon taking pictures in new, low lit multi-storey car parks..with nice, newly painted floors with contrasting tarmac coulours looks very pro.

Or alongside some good piece of building architecture ...pictures in the countryside are getting boring now, Im sick of looking at my own and everyone elses motors set in the foreground of fields featuring the usual of add-on sheep, welsh-farmers, dog walkers etc.

Floody, they're both actually superb suggestions.

The Kielder one in particular.  Never thought of up there.  Shields is good too....but keep the keys firmly in hand...!

Coasting,
Did'nt read your last line Dark Ind. Est.
Ideal place ICI Billingham, lot's of dark building's, lot's of smoke, I can think of 4/5 location's, give me a shout
