- Inside the remnants of the grounds of Worsley New Hall and it's now derelict and flooded (A.A.O.R) Anti Aircraft Operations Bunker!
An extremely creepy explore but one brimming with history. Well worth getting my feet wet.

I grew up about a mile from there. Spent many a happy hour, day, and week in the 70’s & 80’s exploring all over there incl. Middlewood, the Bridgewater Canal, and old mines workings. Happy days!
Me and a few mates in 1968 went into that bunker at Worsley went in through the now block door at 12:26 on video, there used to be a scout camp nearby which we stayed at. When we visited it there were still tables and telephones and maps in the place, remember map of the English Chanel and aircraft pinned to it. We entered through a large steel door. I'm 62 now, you have brought back a great memory of what we kids used to get up to. Shame it has been trashed since I was there.
Brilliant I bet it looked fantastic in there back then with everything still in. And yep I went on quite a few adventures myself as a nipper too m8 lol some that I maybe shouldn't have lol. Thanks for watching m8 glad you enjoyed it.
@@TheUrbanCollectiveWeFilmIt I wish I'd have taken my dad back their as he was a cean photographer did his own developing. As I said when I went in, everything was still in place. I don't remember all those trees around the place. I lived in Sale at the time. Also just near Bunker was a steep embankment where we used to throw each other down.
@@ThePatto56 Quality im glad it brought back those memories for you m8 thanks man!
1968 and you were urban exploring!! You may well of invented urban exploring pal,big up!!!👍👍
@@MickJ666 What we got up to as kids, remember going in the Old run down Mill at Dunham Massey. Also on Sinderland Lane Broad Heath the old WW2 army camp turned into a pig farm, but there were still tin huts there with mortar shells and rife bullets all kicking around, then there was the abandoned farms on Carrington Moss. ;)
I went camping on many occasions in these grounds back in the 1980's & early 90's. The old bunker was well and truly locked up back then, but the old lake, with it's 'moon dome' duck hunt shelter, and swamp lake provided many hours of exploring.
Yeah, I was going to include it properly m8 but they were carrying out works down there so it was a no-go, unfortunately! I've spent many hours Worsley woods as a kid myself pal awesome adventures il never forget!
Thank you so much for directing me to this one 👍 to be honest, I don't know Worsley.....I'm from London but my dad grew up here (my sister was also born in Manchester, so got a lot of family connections).... And it's beautiful to see part of what and where made my father....shaped his view, a bit, you know?
Magic!!! Thanks again mate..
Atmosphere 🙏👍👍👍
Absolute pleasure m8 glad you enjoyed it it pal.
Brilliant mate,I live just down the road in Eccles..
Spent hours in that place off my head from LSD,
Even those old bottles are probably left over after the rave and when you think about it, that's becoming part of history. Great video.
Thanks Alan Il never forget this one as its so different to the norm quite an hair raising exoeriance going in here on me todd to be honest.
We went to a rave in there years ago lol
Only just found this. Me and a few mates used to go messing in the woods there as kids, we called it Middlewood... pretty sure the lake came under Salford Angling. I remember us stumbling across this building wondering what the hell this giant concrete structure in the middle of the woods was.... Now I know. Cheers.
Quality I'm glad you finally found out then m8 thanks for watching man.
Hope you had that hot soak! This was utter brilliance Clarky, the photos the transitions the old fountain and foundations!
What a master stroke climbing in there and tbh brave !!! Dad had the right idea tho🤣
Seriously just brilliant!
Pmfsl Yeah not my finest moment with regards to safety measures pal but a once in a lifetime job I think lol
@@TheUrbanCollectiveWeFilmIt proper “abandoned engineering”. You deserve a spot on the history/yesterday channels!
@@markwall6651 Maybe one day brother lol
I like your style with the intro containing the history. AAOR rooms are good locations, a lot of them are flooded though. They have a crazy echo! First time I managed to get in one it's the size inside that takes you by surprise. You did get a little bit lucky on the ground floor. There is a cross of drainage ducts cut into the floor.. You missed then when walking about. I want to visit a restored AAOR at some point, just to see how it would have looked with the perspex panels on the top level looking down and the big plotting table below. Well done, really liked this one :-)
Cheers m8 and yeah what a sight that would be eh!
Brilliant video, thank you for braving the cold water for us. A really fascinating building with lots of history :-)
Cheers m8!
You make some quality content mate. I hope your channel gets big in the future.
Much appreciated man tk care m8!
Brilliant video. Sad to see it flooded but still seems in solid shape. Fantastic video though. Thanks
Cheers paul!
Camped there with the scouts back in 1964 remember the lake and the duck domes fantastic .
Brilliant editing on this one pal, I uploaded my video one week Before you and I was back up there last night for a part 2(with wellies this time) so I know exactly what you went through to get this video. Wet feet wasn’t nice but defo worth it , great video keep up good work
Nice one m8 much-appreciated man and yeah Im too well into getting piss wet through but it had to be done! I now travel with wellingtons at all times lol!
Played in there when i was a kid in the early 2000's. Only the bottom floors were flooded then. Brings back memories cheers m8. Never knew about the mansion though.
No wirries m8 thanks for viewership man n taking the time to comment!
Yeah pretty sure this is the same place I went to a rave, probably about 10 years ago now. Pitch black trying to find your way around. But eventually finding the big open room!
I actually cut to a video of the rave as I make my way round
Brilliant vlog clarky
Made me feel cold when you went through that place.. what did it smell like bet it wasn't pleasent.. nice 1 though 👍
Have a good Christmas bro
Nice one r kid much-appreciated man glad you enjoyed it. Same to you too man.
I subscribed and liked - I like the fact you cover my local area - I’ll watch some of your old videos 👍
Cheers m8 much appreciated I pretty much cover Greater Manchester but every now and then Il venture further afield hope you enjoy a few more vids m8!
All gone now, thanks for braving the water, epic.
No way did they get rid of it. Is the garden in its place then is it completely demolished?
I went and tried to look for it but couldn't find it, probably full of boring daffodils, keep up finding our past, if it's left to councils they would have nothing but offices carparks in their place.
@@lenamonaghan3852 last time I went past it was fenced off so you could t get in. Be surprised if they've ripped it down tbf. Did take me a while to find it when I went
@@TheUrbanCollectiveWeFilmIt it’s not been demolished been there today but it’s all bolted off
@@Jimdomy234 Oh right I got told it was gone cheers m8!
Hope you’ve got yourself some armoured safety wellies since Clarky.
Can’t go unprepared in to the unknown!
Lol I got some wellies m8 other than that then just the treads lol
Just earned a new subscriber. Vaults lost one
Cheers m8 much appreciated but how do you mean Vault lost one?
@@TheUrbanCollectiveWeFilmIt going off him. All. He talks about is arses cocks and the likes. Shame though
Brilliant well done guys love the videos. Lived not for from there once.
Cheers m8 glad your enjoying them.
the rave was in 2009 and what a party it was!
Absolute quality! When it moved to the roof in the morning, just topped it off
Hi!! Creepy explorer recommended you so I subbed!
Cheers Debra!
I used to pass that as i called it air raid shelter on way to work the garden centre was nearby i know they done some work on the grounds found remannants of the old mansion
Yeah, I've seen that dude mad in it thanks for watching man!
Top vid mate brings back memories "worsley bomb shelter" we use to call it, we broke in 1999 took 2 night's to cordless angle grind the hinges of doors (which in vid are filled in now) ni cad batteries on grinders wern't great then. When you go in can go left or right and the floor plan mirrors which ever way you go eary creepy about 6 of us scary shit. We found the safe rooms and took another day to break into them thinking they was treasure in there... When it opened it must of been 3/4 feet of water it took 5 min to drain and stunk awful my 2 mates went in because they was determined to find something even though it was still holding 6inch of manky stinking water.. 3 days later he didn't come into college got a phone call of his mum saying he was in hospital and wanted to no if we had been taking drugs or something.. When admitted to a+e they was asking if he had been to India or Sri Lanka without vaccinations?!?! Turns out he caught something nasty started shutting down his liver and kidney he got lucky nhs got him well again don't thing it was deadly,
A few months past and word started getting out more people coming after drinking in cock hotel Friday night we went down with creates of beer usual stuff only to be met by greater manchester police and the scout master from camp nearby telling us to go away never come back ( 12y.o kids got on roof one fell broke his leg ) and confiscated beers etc police disappeared and scout master stuck about escorted us to the gates (begin of vid) he was telling us stories about the place he said we first little arseholes to get in there since 1991/2 when they last used it to film a series of "cracker" a detective show from early 90's and they only used upstairs. Think we were first in them safe rooms considering what happened to my mate with all the malaria skanky shit he caught what ever it was.. also at around 24min in your vid your in what we called the "coms room" looks into next floor below and on wall use to be printed a map of the world with airports plane travel lines China Russia USA military bases and all sorts of info we couldn't work out.. some people use to say it was cold war era, also we found hidden rooms found to the left a huge room which technically when you walk around the building your on roof of the room must of 24 x 12 metres and had 2 stairwells going down which had been filled in - so it went deeper!
We got back in with grinders again in 2000 and the drinks and party's continued but it was starting to flood in rain we traced leak to safe room and tree routes and I think now after time it's constantly flooding.
By 2001 it was no secret and people would blazingly go there in day light girls from local area would get on roof and sun bathe topless no dog walkers could ever see great views aswell
Think it was 2002 when some illegal rave scheme found out about it and through an event on there 1000+ people turned maybe 2k though in morning people from Newcastle liverpool Leeds ect for the party ... obviously police were called and some then them doors have been filled in stairways taken down in the building and maybe sealed up the secret room which isint on vid. Good work great vid mate
I believe it's now knocked down they building a royal garden on there now so this footage is now rare!!
No way man thanks for sharing m8 I had a feeling it went deeper to be honest and I beg you guys were gutted when nothing but stagnant water came out eh lol. I dont actually know if its still there to be honest m8 last I heard the RHS where saving it but dont quote me. Thanks for sharing your history dude!
Ah we were kids 16 -19 Just about get in pub with fake id lol I wasn't expecting any treasure my mates where nuts... we had all started apprenticeships in joinery bricklaying etc and had access to tools. Just goonie missions but word spread was no longer are secret. Yeah goes deeper to left you can see air vents coming out of ground all over the terrain. I hope they do save it last I heard rhs garden was going in knocking down "bomb shelter" and moon but, noon hit pretty rare too
*moon hut
Also fair play... no chance id go in there on own!
Kin magik, 2nd use: a history in its self !!
Cool...didnt know that was there!
Your intros are superb.
Cheers m8!
Brill vid Brother. I do hope Santa brings you some wellies and wooly socks. Stay safe kiddo and all the best for Christmas.
Lol and yeah same to m8 thanks for sticking around man!
Top quality yet again mate, just you getting inside is a mission in itself, Buzzin that you did 👏🏼👏🏼
Because I’m into graffiti, I took some screenshots of the Graff on the outside & inside.
Is it ok to share my screenshots elsewhere on a Manchester Graff page? Thought I’d ask beforehand, cheers.
Top work once again.
Yeah no worries man nice one M
The Urban Collective cheers man, I’ll give you a shoutout 👍🏼
I love your video editing sounds / samples and pics too. History there man.
P.s as anyone said you sound like Craig Charles? No offence lol Keep up the good work you too ;)
Craig Charles lol never had that one m8 but I have had Liam Gallagher bez sean rider Terry Christian and many more...lol
I actually thought Clarky sounded like Derek Acorah - it must be that scouse accent 😉 lol
@@TheUrbanCollectiveWeFilmIt I've had some crazy nights with Bez :) And got some signed artwork and stuff on my wall. i will inbox you them mate. Add us on fcbk Carl Heny Henshall ;)
@@westedk pmfsl you cheeky barsteward!
@@ExploringwithCarl Yeah man You find me on the official Urban Collective Page or Group as well brother!
First comment!
20 mins into the video and loving every second of it. Fantastic explore. You should've taken your socks off and just walked through just wearing your trainers wouldn't have been as bad having wet feet getting home lol
Lol cheers m8!
I'm surprised they didnt knock that place down whilst they were demolishing the mansion. The mansion looked bigger than Buckingham palace.
Strange how Worsley Old Hall outlive Worsley New Hall?
Over ground. Underground . Clarky will go. To bring to you a view. Of his soggy wet shoe. Haha. Great one clarky. Grez
Cheers pal ever since this Ive allways took the wellingtons lol.
We went to have a look the other night at this thanks to ur video bro and as u go over that wall next to the main entrance u walk down about 15 foot or so and they have put a massive gate there now thats about 10ft hight up with fencing all around pal but we got over that and had a mooch but when we got to the main building we couldnt get in as they sealed all that of pal anyways have a gd christmas and great new year and we will catch up for that mooch when ur up this way in the new year
Yeah the RHS are doi g it up into a botanically type garden place but I think they are saving the building? Anyway see you new year pal.
No worries pal see u in new year
Surely its about time they fixed and smartened up the old hall gates on Worsley roundabout. Hopefully they will do something with them when the RHS work is complete?
Yeah possibly pal I spoke to one of the Groundworkers there so I think they will be saved!
been watcheing the when they did the rd up on leigh rd been round here 50 and seen lots of changes
Yeah Ive seen a few neself m8 I was made up finally figuring out what lay beyond those gates after all the years of pondering.
Also you missed out the room with all the safes built into the wall best room in the place
Yeah so I've heard man gutted!
@@TheUrbanCollectiveWeFilmIt better get yourself back in there then? :)
Quality clarky you could just imagine what it was like back in the day. Thanks for getting them white tennis socks soaked brother lmfao
Pmfsl never mind them I cried when Inspected the nikeys man...
Just been watching the video again yeah I have seen it last time I know further on from the bunker there is an old ice house perhaps that's where they kept big blocks of ice in the day for the mansion
Oh there is I wish Id known!
Brilliant inning & safely outing of this ex govt concrete block. Typical that they'd block the ways in, ravers or not. Seems was a ramming construction when in use, so many levels, from other comments on here, not least the door grinders and clearly THE time to have gone theere with wall maps an that. Wonder that they raved there with all that bad water flooding it. Real shame the new hall was pulled.
yeah bit more security there now.
The lego man at 12:57 theres another one under the m60 at the east lancs.
Yeah Ive actually seen it m8!
@@TheUrbanCollectiveWeFilmIt yeah the one under motorway has been there for as long as I can remember.
Was that damn fence up when you went ?
No m8 just walked str8 on!
The Urban Collective ahh , I’m wondering if that fence was built pretty much after your video ( I know that fence wouldn’t of stopped you anyway )
I love your videos
This one especially
I’ve lived 2 miles from here all my life and mainly stuck to the brooks ( kempnough etc) on the other side of motorway and middle wood
But I’m hoping that when they do the gardens up it won’t be private property ?
I’m glad you got inside it ..that was a sacrifice for our viewing brother ! Thankyou
love to do this place up and make it something like to look at .behind this lot is goin to be an agricultue collage on what was the old garden centre .the garden centre had its own private well .not sure the state of it all now got a book called the history of worsly by ian pratt a for history teacher from old walkden high school
Yeah the house and well are still there I believe and its RHS who own the land they are turning ito some kind of resserve or something. I must admit it was pretty creepy in there on my todd hopefully they do something with it indtead of demoing it eh.
I went to that rave
Haha mint glad you saw the vid then m8!
You could do with a decent steadycam or gimble. I was feeling nauseous a few minutes in.
Since addressed pal imagine how I felt editing it lol!
Mate I'm 37 from Eccles and always pissed about in worsley woods as a kid, could never get in here though.
Well Im glad you finally got to see it then brother!
May I suggest wearing rubber gloves Clarky..... I'm surprised no frogs or pond-life was established there!
Lol agreed and wellies. And yeah I never thought about that to be honest Im there must be few frogs knocking about though.
Snook in yesterday and there is a chinese garden and pigs in there as part of the renovation
Might bob down one day If our handlers let us out. You do jniw your not meant to live a life anymore dont you... lol
@@TheUrbanCollectiveWeFilmIt hahaha yeah defo worth it they emptied the lake a few months ago to renovate it but they have filled it up again and looks a lot better tbh but the only way we managed to get in was getting on at the canal and crossing the field and entering where the moon hut is then you have the climb a wire fence to get up to the bunker, i hope the bunker doesnt get demolished
@@sashamoody1708 Well I heard off of people in the geounds upin exiting that day that the bunker was in fact gonna be saved and used. I cant see it though m8. And trust me Ive seen enough now to know man. Thanks for the heads up.
@@TheUrbanCollectiveWeFilmIt no worries mate im gonna go back next weekend enjoy walking round those woods
I used to work near here many years ago
