What sort of thing are you looking for? Places for photographs or somewhere to go exploring?

no, generally your not supposed to. one of those thing you need to be sensible with, really. don't head in with a bat for 'protection' or anything.

just be careful, and don't draw attention

You'd be suprised how many abandoned places actually have security patrols going round them now and again to keep an eye out!! Someone still owns the land remember even if places are derelect ;o)

As said thou if ur sensible and dont draw attention to yourself (hard in a cossie mind u lol) then most people dont mind u taking pics etc!!
