Longsight building Manchester 05/11

This was a pure chance find! I took my camera out to get a few shots on an old enclosure and came across this place!
I have no idea of it’s purpose or how long it’s been sealed shut, this is an Explore in Progress and I need to be assisted to go in any further, As you can see, it’s a bit unsafe and well – you can guess the rest!
It is in a place called Longsight, Manchester.

Roof tiles from 3 floors above!


Link to main building! Hairier than a werewolf!


View from the link bridge (Laid down door)


Old wall switch


Looking up!


Looking up more, that’s a fireplace!


Pipes to boiler room


Boiler valves

The beast!

Well that was worth taking the camera round.

Israel Newton are still building and repairing boilers.

This may be of use to find out what it was...........

great pics, the boiler one, Idle isnt that far from me at all, & the boiler is nearly as old as me

That looks a tricky site!

Good luck re visiting
