Bradford Conditioning House - Bradford - August 2015

[degenerate]

The historic Conditioning House was established as a wool testing centre through a special Act of Parliament passed in 1887. It was built around 1902 and in its heyday employed hundreds of people but Bradford Council decided to sell it and the building was closed. Nearly 70% of all wool produced in the UK would have been brought here for testing prior to use.

This place is lethal, the floors are extremely rotten and in some areas full of holes! Visited with Merkal Jackson and non-member Magicman.

Thanks for looking.

Thankyou! It's been done before but it was a while ago - it became one of those with rather tricky access, that could explain why it's still in fairly decent shape! I've heard its the only building of its kind in the country too.

I love the photos you got here, Degenerate, and I can imagine that this is a very fun place to explore

Thank you, it was a laugh with torch batteries dying, bumping into things and trying not to fall through the floors! All in a good days exploring.
