Hey all,

After a fairly poor, rained off day of Non-exploring, I stumbled on this place near to the old Barrowclift Spinnings company. Had a scout around with the wife, and found a way. Anyway, we made our way in, and saw probably 80% of the site. Must go back, as it is a cool place, with some nice kit in place, with what looks like the glass manufacturing shop up the far end, that we didn't see.

From what I can gather, the original company was set up in 1815, and produced mainly large panes of glass. They are mow multi-national, and do UPVC patio dors and stuff, so have moved on to bigger units. Very cool building up the machine shop end, being original Victorian in style. The bit we saw was a later addition, maybe 20's as it looks a bit Art-deco.

Enjoy! :)

great to see what's actually there mind. :)
 
Some cool shots there SH! You really do spot some stuff that I never see. Can't wait for a return visit to see the far end where all the green stuff is!!!! :)
