I haven't spotted any van bodies for a while, despite keeping my eyes peeled when out and about, but on a mountain bike ride in White Peak today I came across this example;
As can be seen the field it sits in is quite overgrown. Sometimes its not the van bodies that are interesting, but the setting that they're in.
I had to wade through long grass and nettles to get close, not ideal when wearing shorts. But, I am supposed to be a fairly tough mtber...
The windows are interesting, as is the side vent;
I couldn't see what, if anything, was inside, I'm afraid that the nettles did a good job of keeping me away.
A good find I think, and one that should appeal to someone wanting to put a grounded body with a difference on their layout, those windows would be easy to add to a kit built wagon and would make for a unique model. It can be found southwest of Tideswell, at approximately SK146746.
