Hey!

Stumbled across this place while visiting Nitewing in Leek (Nice to meet you, man! :thumb)

Haven't been able to find out any information (yet), and since I'm not local I've no one to ask. It's mostly used for junk storage now, but I'm guessing demolition is on the cards as the place is just rotten.

I imagine it shut some time around 2005.

At one point, wallpaper started to fall off the walls around me - thought the roof was caving in

Had to turn this over to get a proper photo - damn thing weighed a tonne!

This place would make a perfect studio appartment

The yard out back is jam-packed with all sorts of contraptions - well worth checking out if you're into macro/HDR.

Cheers ;)

Get over there then, and be sure to photograph the mangle in the backyard ;)
