Grampian Factory - October 2015

[The_Derp_Lane]

First of all, thanks Bones out for giving me the courage to finally visit this place.

Here we have is an old factory, no location names but a bit of history on this place shows it was an old food factory which closed down around 2007. I took loads of photos here so here are a few of the best ones.

There are no reports on this place yet, although the local kids seem to like coming here and use it as a graphiti club.

My torch died, I had to use the flash on the camera to see where I was going.

My foot nearly went through the floor at that point.

I got spooked up there so I decided to exit.

Success, 8/10 for my first decent factory after one year of exploring.

Thanks for posting, I worked at Grampian Country Chickens at various times from 2005 to 2007. It was a chicken processing plant. They took live chickens and turned them into various products. The feathers went for cheap bedding, even the legs, beaks and feet were sold to China. Most chickens were turned into breasts or whole chickens and sold to supermarkets.

That looks a bit bleak so you did well to make it look as interesting as you did!

If this is the Factory that i think it may well be, I read somewhere about a local urbexer who went to explore the site, and unfortunately it cost him his life. I think he did fall through a floor.

Good report.

That's really tragic.. :sad: I don't think it was in this factory because I would have heard about it when it happened, however, I did get spooked on the rooftop because I heard an alarm go off in the distance, not sure where about it went off.

Not sure if this is the same place, but this is the article.

Rooftops are always a bit dicey. I have done a few places but unfortunately i can't seem to get the pics to upload properly
