    I had known about Holloway for a long time due to my various journeying  from Kings Cross,

    but could not find a way in until early in 1958 when I found the signalman’s entrance to the

    down side, I managed to convince him I was not a vandal or bent on suicide and seeing I was

    harmless, he persevered with my presence. Shortly afterwards the signalman on the up side

    invited me over, it was there that I made friends with a gang of platelayers, it was through them

    that I was able to take some of the shots below. Today it would be impossible and though some

    of the locations look dangerous I had the maintenance gang behind me. I am eternally grateful

    to them for their assistance. All photographs are Copyright.
