*WARNING* This is a derp of the highest order

I was originally looking at a drain but when I popped the manhole I could see the water level rising so decided not to play in drains as it rains.

The mill is/was across the road from Tesco in Macc and the entry was amusing, there is work going on behind the derelict mill at the pylon but this mean secca were actually walking up and down the road

This wouldn't normally be a major issue but as I was heading down a drain I had a crowbar fastened to my bag and drain keys in my pocket so I didn't fancy the police asking why I was going equipped

Inside it's completely trashed and at one point I ducked behind a pile of cable that looked due to be nicked

What was this? There's almost nothing left to show what the building was used for. A textile mill? Why is it called Barracks?
