Unknown factory, Sheffield - June 2008

Visited this with ZERO SEVEN FOUR and his friend after going to Park Hill. I spotted this place a few months back on the train, it seems to be a popular joint for street artists and artwork varies from chav rubbish to the proper stuff. Much like the GNR Warehouse in Derby.

I don't know much about the place, its 19th century with a 1970s block (probably an office). From what Zero Seven Four told me it was partially demolished (which explains the lack of roof on part of it) however something happened and the proposed redevelopment never happened.

Access was easy, and the explore was pretty gentle. The artwork was lovely too!

Some arson damage...



I knew TV was crap, but this is taking the mick...




Local game perhaps


Newer building


And the older...



Inside the new block's upper floor


Transpennine train speeds past.... pity my Cross Country Train didn't get very far (stopped for two hours!)


Because its traditional, at least the doings are censored out!


Some of the fantastic artwork


Lots of montana spray cans, only the best for these guys

That's actually the old Millhouses Loco Sheds, my mates used to go there every now and then, infact they are probably the ones to thank for most of the rubbish. I believe it's being knocked down soon, can anyone confirm this?

Nice pics...great explore
