History of the building interesting, to think that was still working not so long ago, then all manufacturing started grinding to a halt.
Some of the art within and outside stunning, pity some have been destroyed from former glory!

spot on, I guess it is pretty remote and without the rail line transport costs mean it is totally unviable.
Most probably had rail into the factory, removed after close down. Manufacturing simply died out with modern plastic or cheaper inventions, look at the rubbish dumps world wide.
yes, train track ripped up and it is now a touristic thing called The camel Trail, ( not the animal, the river). good for cyclists walkers etc etc.
Too much rail ripped up or stolen here, crazy with so many enthusiasts hankering for short steam train rides. Well the walk then would be next best I suppose....
here, it is thye copper they thieve, very risky breaking into live electrical substations, risk v reward and all that.
All cabling theft (no matter what or where) or getting into homes to remove copper piping highly talented gangs roam daily... Pity they don't use their 'talents' on doing a days work without stealing.
ha!!! work? their ilk don't believe in work.
