The HMS Royal Arthur (1939-1993) was a navy training camp where recruits would be trained up and send to their various depots. In 1993 the site was abandoned and left to rot. Since then it has suffered vandalism, metal thefts, and extensive overgrowth. Most people avoid it due to the roof sheets containing asbestos, but there are plans to remove it.

  • the royal arthur was a good place safe but abandoned. me and my friends practised our graffiti tagging up there and sprayed dtuff up but then burnt out cars started to appear around smashed windows and fly tipping and builders wh couldent be botherd to go to the dump dropped there rubbish there ie:bath tubs toilets rubble and the main house by the sports centre was burnt out due to arsonists and the roofs on buildings became rotten and fell in rats mice fires so now most of royal arthur is coverd by derby.
  • One would hope the cack responsible for offloading their rubbish and as well as the cack responsible for spraying yob-splatter over the buildings all contract asbestosis. It would be my greatest delight to encounter a rotting skeleton dressed in tattered tracksuit bottoms and faded base-ball cap clutching a rusty spray can - where some grafitti-cacker had lost its footing and fallen through the ceiling!
  • Aztelquian... you fool.. if you got your lazy rear end up of the sofa and actually trekked to the site you would find out what a dump it has turned out to be.... the graffiti is beautiful and skilled... but dirty scum have dumped rubbish and gypsies have stripped it....!!!!! The Graffiti Artists are trying to make it into something nice!
