Not that Porton Down though, the public health labs on the left before the gate.

Had to go there many years ago, and for whatever reason, it made me feel incredibly un-easy.

This was a good if slightly scary watch...

A bunch of pathogens near Harlow. Excellent forward thinking to improve the south east.

(Yes I’ve been there and my grandparents lived there). A dump, compared to other options with similar money. It was a great new town concept post war but sadly has been in a spiral for at least 30 years.
