Project 1 - Cast Bracelet Links
Project Brief:
"In this project you are required to design and make a link for multiple production, from which you will create a bracelet based on the theme of ‘urban exploration’. You will generate 2 mood boards, starting on day 1 of the module. This project will demonstrate your understanding of master patterns, mould making and the casting process. Each unit/link will be professionally finished and assembled into a bracelet, with a complimentary clasp."

This is part of the Wikipedia entry for Urban Exploration:
"Urban exploration (often shortened as urbex, UE, bexing, urbexing and sometimes known as roof-and-tunnel hacking) is the exploration of man-made structures, usually abandoned ruins or not usually seen components of the man-made environment.
Photography and historical interest/documentation are heavily featured in the hobby and, although it may sometimes involve trespassing onto private property, this is not always the case.
Urbex or urban exploration may also be referred to as draining (an alternate form of urbexing where drains are explored), urban spelunking, urban rock climbing, urban caving, or building hacking.
The nature of this activity presents various risks, including both physical danger and, if done illegally and/or without permission, the possibility of arrest and punishment.
Some activities associated with urban exploration violate local or regional laws and certain broadly interpreted anti-terrorism laws, or can be considered trespassing or invasion of privacy."

The key words I focused on in the above definition of "Urban Exploration" were man-made and abandoned. There is no mention of it having to take place in a city. As a country dweller I took that as permission to look at structures in my local area that I could visit at the weekend.
