All: Let's focus on the PA desolation, lest territorial sensitivities are offended   ;)

Hey, I've got a big white horse watching over my little town. We fear no mortals.

I reckon you live about 5 miles from me then, mind you there's plenty of white horses about.
That safari park might make for some hair raising post apoc action though.

Here is an interesting collection of photos of US shopping malls that have been left derelict...not Britain but lets face it one shopping mall looks pretty much like any other, regardless of where in the world it is.

Here is a link...

This is not strictly Post Apoc, or even Britain. But i really like the art of this guy.

He is a swedish artist who paints amazing sci-fi images. Some of them could be Post Apoc Sweden.

You can even buy prints of his work.

Stunning stuff- I love it. Some of that should be hanging on the wall of my gaming room (if I had a gaming room!)

Thanks for showing me that.

Even those of us who're mere colonials are aware (vaguely) of the perils of Essex.  :D

Love it - reminds me of the work of Ralph McQuarrie.

If you happen to use or at least peruse the Instagram, there would be plenty of useful pictorial material to be found from various folk.
