It's a bit worrying that a data centre has had multiple break-ins. They need to get better security.

[@cliffordnicholls868]

Closing the gates would be a good start I think.

[@bashkillszombies]

Hiring security who can speak English, understand the law to a rudimentary level, and are more worried about the security of the property than harassing public might help too.

[@rogerborg]

Maybe they should spent more time securing their site, rather than spaffing a bunch of nonsense at photographers outside of it.

[@Leepercomm]

Seems to me security needs to be more concerned about securing their property better to prevent break-ins than being concerned about someone doing a legal activity of taking photos and video from public land. Security is uneducated in thinking you need ,"permission".

[@mambajoopa]

​@@bashkillszombies Security companies don't like people who can speak English. If you don't understand English you can't question anything.

[@gdr38515]

The security guy was poorly informed but friendly and non-confrontational. The bigger was OK too considering he's been up to the 3am alarm call. At the end of the day, however, it's the responsibility of the data centre to secure its facility. Don't whinge if you haven't done your job properly.

Great video and views 👍⭐⭐⭐ Waterside House was sold to Keppel DC REIT for £56M and leased back to Vodafone. In 2016 Waterside House was acquired by Palmer Capital and SEDCO Capital for £35M from property owner Aviva. In July 2023 was announced Vodafone is selling its London offices and six data centres and Vodaphone will lease them back through 2032. 2016 article notes: "Waterside House comprises 94,867 sq. ft. of recently refurbished Grade A office accommodation with 338 car parking spaces on a 4.7 acre site. The entire property is let to Cable & Wireless UK on a 30 year lease, which has 22.8 years left on the term with fixed minimum RPI rental uplifts every 5 years." The area was agricultural and rural near Roundshill Farm up to the 1948 aerial photo. Most post war factory units were constructed along the new Western Road on the north side of the lake. Much of the area since redeveloped from the 50s-60s developments.
