AFAIK, Kineton is one of those places where you do take your life in your hands if you go near it, let alone get a camera out :shock:

Yeah, Trust me when I am only up the road from it, You dare go near it, the chances are you will have a bullet in your brain before you have even pressed the shutter. :D They are very tight about even letting anyone near the railways thats why it is in such a remote location.
