Visited Monkton Farleigh with my son at the weekend & found Ammo Case Valley.Someone must have sent the the cleaners around,compared with Higgypop's picture posted less than a year ago it's almost empty.There is just a(huge)pile of shells at the mine entrance end of the valley now!
I used to go to the Monkton Farleigh tunnels about 15years ago, you used to be able to walk around most of the underground areas acess was via district 20 down a long sloping tunnel. I believe the entrance is now blocked, but I know that the farmer is (fairly) friendly & Has (Had) acess. although I explored the area I never found Shell case valley... Wish I had! now living in Australia so a bit far to travel!
Must share HOW we located several underground sites.... we used to get old maps that showed steam railway tunnels, cross ref with modern maps... If the tunnel has been "Dissapeared" then it is probably packed with Goodies by the MOD!
has anyone explored the underground shaft that runs from Box to monkton farleigh ammo dump,it was used to convey all the shells from the railway in Box to Monkton farleigh, the conveyor belt and huge motors are still in situ, and alot of graffiti from the soldiers on walls im willing to take you there if anybody is interested.
