Earls Barton ROC Post - (Northamptonshire Group) - March 2009

Visited this post with Kingrat on a "whistle stop" tour of some local ROC posts.

Located in a compound, to the side of Wellingborough Rugby club's car park.
The post it pretty well trashed, and its very damp inside, the hatch is completely missing along with everything inside, although the walls have been stripped of all the tiles and lay in bin bags inside. There appears to be some sort of clean up going on in the post:confused: whether this means that someone's doing it up or not is vague by some of the things still around, maybe its a local den for the kids, judging by the tire hanging from the FSM pipe.

All toll this is a well shredded post:eek:

The hatch is missing, a plastic sheet now stops the rain from entering:confused:

The pumps missing! But note the cloth wrapped around the pipe? A sign that its being done up:confused:

The tire that doubles as a swing, hanging from the FSM pipe. The red door on the floor belongs to the post.

Debris litters the surface, the original telegraph pole survives along with the junction box.
