    Default Brittania Works, West Yorkshire - Feb 2013

    Its been a while since Ive been exploring but this is my starter for a new year of getting back out there. . .

    Didn’t think there was much at this site but was pleasantly surprised. It’s a small scale engineering & metal fabrication business which seems to have given up about 20 years ago. There’s plenty of machinery still inside but it’s buried under all kinds of junk. There has also been some involvement it repairing cars and collecting scrap metal at the site and there are still several old cars outside rotting away which was the main attraction, well for me anyway!

    Sorry, its not the best of reports as I didn't get many pics from inside, mainly because there was so much junk everywhere and I didn't have my tripod, but hope you enjoy!

    Cars left at owners risk! Don't think they're getting them back now!
