I visited here with Kaputnik a couple of months ago
I haven't really been able to find out much else, the only thing being that the company was fined £2000 in 2004 for breaches of the, Management of Health & Safety at Work Regulations 1999 (No 3) para 1 and the Control of Asbestos at Work Regs 2002 (No 9) para 1.
It was pretty well stripped, but some interesting bits to see.
The chimney
It was a 100ft high and was the last standing brick chimney from the dying industry in Nottingham. Note I said was, because me and Kaputnik went back today to see the chimney be demolished by controlled explosion
Rest of my pics are here
Nottingham Dyers, which was formerly known as Breconshire Dyeworks, was established in 1973 and specialised in dyeing and finishing socks and tights. At its peak in 1998, the company employed 140 workers, but it fell victim to the demise of the British textile and hosiery industry.
