    Default Facit Mill, Whitworth, Lancs. - July 2011

    Visited with KooK, Mr C & Sammydoublewhammy

    After seeing initial reports from this Mill, the engine house and it’s wonderful tiling proved enough of a righteous draw for us four West Yorkshireites to visit our neighbouring county.

    It didn’t disappoint, however, there was a lot of empty darkness... Tales of alarmed doors, the boys in blue and a rash developing from the amount of time spent on the wrong side of t’hills made our trip around the internals of this Mill a quick one.

















    Ta as always for having a look.

    I love this type of architecture! Amazing how much effort used to go into designing buildings years ago, even if they were just industry buildings. Nowadays they are just massive sheds
