I went past for the first time when we came back from a trip not so long ago, the lift shaft and whole area looked a sorry boarded up and derilict place. Not Boxhill near me which was a so near so far answer. This was the job I was on when I stayed in Lacock in one of the pubs- some late nights there I can say ! Time to wind up so catch you all tomorrow sometime. Edited by: Vince Hawthorn at:6th May 2014 23:22 |

A contractor working on the decommissioning was in the laundry room and noticed radioactive water leaking on to the floor from a pond. According to one newspaper, it was a chance decision to wash some dirty clothes
