Visited with Merkal Jackson and a non member (who would go by the name Magicman)
Hays Colours was a dye and pigment manufacturer and distributor based in Halifax. In 2001 it was bought by Albion Colours who in turn were bought out by Brenntag Colours in 2006. They've since moved premises and left this building dormant with some remnants of its past remaining.
On the visit we found it was made up of three buildings, all three are pretty trashed and stripped of all wiring, here is the first:

The third and final building:

Upstairs the steel floor was rusty, sagging and full of holes which appeared to drop into the tanks below, a little nervewracking to say the least.

Sorry if there are too many pictures or they came out the wrong size, this is my first post constructive criticism would be great, cheers.
