Albion Mill, Macclesfield - Jan 08

Visited this place with Ike last month, access was a comedy affair, cold AND wet!

Anyhow, access gained, the place was fairly stripped out having been split up into individual business units in its latter years, it was one of those places that I've driven past dozens of times and thought 'I really need to get in that place, it's bloody annoying me, just sat there, teasing me!!'.

I think we spent a good couple of hours pottering about, being scared by a tiny little bird flying towards me as I descended a set of stairs (it was going for my eyes, I'm sure!!) lol.

Was worth the unorthodox entry in the end, it's another one off the list (which seems to grow every day).

Here are the pix.





















One thing I will say about this explore is save it for the summer, was a little chilly for us two!! lol.

What no pics of the legendary river crossing lol.

Great looking building! Love the green moss on the brickwork. Those worn-down stairs are pretty neat too.

Nice tour pic 8 is great

Great looking site. Too many of these lovely old mills are going the same way. I think someone has something against this part of our past. Shame.

Great shots guys, oh and TNM, my legs aint much better!!!!!!
