This building has been torched a couple of times. It's next door to the old X Ray Gamma
Ray Ltd building.
It took 70 firefighter, 12 fire engines and 2 hydraulic platforms to tackle the blaze. The
fire commander said 80 percent of the building was destroyed making it structurally unsafe
but now Sandwell council say it is no longer unsafe but as now been fenced off to keep
the public out. I couldn't find much history on the place as I doubt it's not always been
a furniture manufacture.
