This one's a revisit. For my first report (HERE) I didn't manage to get into the place. However with the impending demo of this city centre site - probably to build more student flats, access availed itself. Needless to say that there isn't a great deal inside and the factory floor is separate from the sealed and potentially more interesting front-facing admin block. But enough here to add a little bit extra to my original report.

Front of house/admin block:

Full frontal:

Not the highest standard of graff here:

Although this is better:

Thanks for looking!
 
like those old 1950's metal block letters on the building, they looks to have neon tubes set in the letters too, very of its time
 
I knew the full frontal would draw some comments;)

I too love the lettering and wondered if it had neon tubes at some point.

Maybe this is where some of Sheffield's greatest learnt their graff skills, better than mine anyway;)

Sadly a lot of the older parts of Sheffield are being demolished, I've not seen this before so thanks!

Sadly very rotten wooden letters with the neon tubes mounted on the surface - which is why some of the tubes have been displaced in recent years. The rot is very visible at the joints on the letters L and T in LTD. - looked quite striking on a dark winter's night.
