Ok, so its been done a few times before, I know. These are from a past visit a few years ago, when I first started up.
The site I believe generated the power for cold rolling, thats where my knowledge sadly ends. I do know its a listed building, I think grade 2, so, it will therefore be left to get worse, without doubt. Its well beyond repair I guess, but on a fine day, was a nice site to walk around.
It now has a Car park -Park and Ride- facility next to it, and is quite overgrown, more so than on these pics.
Peering from the woods at what would have been once impressive to all, but now, just to us.
Looks now as it did in construction, almost ready to plume smoke again.
And Closer.
It will never work again.
From the outside.
Why Round?
Being reclaimed by the land.
To have walked, to have talked, an entire social system crumbled like this floor.
An Office from the outside.
An Office from the Inside.
The ironwork of the roof, is quite nice actually - quite ornate, it has charachter, which is not used in construction these days. (Geek I know)
Well, thats my first post here. I hope you enjoyed!
