I haven't been able to find out much about this long-standing derelict factory. Having seen it three years ago, and promptly forgetting all about it, I recently read in the local paper that councillors want it demolished because it's an eyesore.
After some research I found that they were steel fabricators & erectors and engineering services for agriculture. Further digging found the following bit of info from the Dairy Spares website regarding milking machine parts produced by Rendells.
"Dairy Spares has purchased the Weycroft Macford™ milking machine genuine parts as of 8th May 2006. These are a well established product range in the UK, having been sold here since 1948 and Dairy Spares will continue to supply the full range through their distribution network in the UK. The previous owners Rodney and Mary Rendell have retired and we wish them all the best."
There wasn't a lot left inside as it's been abandoned for some 5 years plus, but as a walk-in explore it was nice and relaxed. Or, at least it would have been. I only had half an hour to spare before catching another bus for my next venue. Winding back the first film too quickly, the damn thing jammed in my camera and broke off, so I lost part of it...which meant that I had to dash around to retake everything!
No Admittance?
I'm not sure what this was. The base for a metal lathe maybe?.
Hope you enjoyed. Cheers m'dears.
