Froomsgate House
December 2013 to October 2015
Since first accessing this building back in 2013 I have been back countless times. It's been one of the best rooftops in Bristol within the past few years. A great place to chill out and watch the city from above.

The Forth Bridge
May 2015
This was the culmination of a 1200 mile road trip I participated in with some friends. I've always loved the Forth bridge, it's a marvel of engineering that's still in use today. We wanted to get to the top and experience it from a different vantage point. It didn't disappoint. Being up there was an incredible experience.

Tees Transporter Bridge
May 2015
A beautifully built bridge over the river Tees, this was the third Transporter bridge that I managed to access and the final one in the UK. It's very well looked after but not quite as impressive as the Newport Transporter Bridge I found. Nonetheless, it was great to get it done.

Warrington Transporter Bridge
May 2015
The second transporter bridge I managed to access in the UK. It has fallen in to disrepair after decades of being unused and cared for. This was originally built as a railway transporter bridge and the only surviving one in the whole world.

Newport Transporter Bridge
October 2013
This is the first Transporter bridge I did. There's only three in the UK and only six operational in the entire world. A very rare type of bridge is this one is amongst the biggest. We probably hadn't picked the best time to ascend this beauty though as we did so whilst the 'Worst storm in 20 years' approached. It kind of paid off though as the wind wasn't much but the rain was very annoying. It was a constant battle to keep the lens free of rain drops.

No. 3 Gasometer - Bath
October 2013
My first Gasometer and I have to say I loved it. It was wobbly, rusty and full of holes but I enjoyed the experience nonetheless. Especially seeing as this is set to be demolished soon.

No. 7 Gas Holder - Battersea
October 2013
Rather tricky to access but very worthwhile once we had figured it out. An amazing experience with great views over the nearby Battersea Power Station.
