Hammill Brickworks, August 2012

[Ninja.Bean]

Hey, sorry its a bit of a late one! but in my defence it is only just september haha!
I visited the place a couple of times now, and so some of my photos are from the first time, and some are from the second. I figured it would be okay to blend them as my visits were less than a week apart!
A little history from the place!

'In the year 1910, construction in woodnesbourough for the colliery began, and by 1911 surface buildings had been built . Including an engine house, work shops and even a chimney. But until the light railway was completed, no further work was to be done on the colliery. But by the year 1914, nothing else had been done, and war had been started. So the building work was yet again delayed.
However, shortly after the war had started, the colliery was taken over by the army for a cavalry unit. So a very large amount of horses had been kept stabled within the buildings.
After the war, still nothing was being done. So the colliery was sold off to Pearson and Dorman (long term owners of betts hangar colliery). Who then sold the buildings off to Hammill Brickworks, all the while keeping the mineral rights. '

I posted this onto another forum, so I copied my history and pasted here! cheating i know. Im sorry!
Well... I hope you like my photos!
