	This is me kicking the year off in style - finally visiting somewhere I had wanted to see for years ever since it first popped up. A true relic and industrial gem, as soon as you step inside you are transported back in time. I always knew I would love being there but I didn't realise just how much I would love it - I could happily spend days in here poking around. 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20

	Absolutely beautiful. It really looks like they went out of the way to make sure that everything was labelled and in its correct place. It's really great to see how much of that fastidiousness survived the process of decay without major vandalism. Can you give us an idea of what kind of industry operated here?

	very nice!
	When I say I'm 'clean and sober', it means I've showered and I'm headed to the liquor store.

It really is a timewarp of a location and one of the best industrial spots in the UK - they used to manufacture tools like screwdrivers, chisels, knives etc etc

	I simply ADORE old machine-shops and this is no exception! Wonderful work, Mookster!

	Butt knives! The 'cubby hole' labels are very interesting, as is pretty much everything else in this entire photo set. Thanks for the great tour... you did indeed kick the year off in style, but also did the same for me with a work-week Monday morning.
