| | Carrongrove paper Finally died 2010-pic heavy < on 3/21/2012 10:20 AM >
| | | From the little information on this place all i have seen is that there had been paper manufacture here for 200 years till Inveresk paper went through a closure program. With the others now gone as well, Very depressing this was a super large site visited at the very beginning of the demo stage. Closed in 2005 for decommissioning the only remaining part if the B-listed mansion a still standing.The stand alone old power plant for the place was demolished last years calling a closure to the place Well children sit back and Enjoy the story of this little adventure. The three bears headed out to this Paper mill at a late stage baby bear (me ) was recovering from a fractured vertebrae in my back from a skydiving accident 2-3 weeks previously. So was a bit slow and a bit stiff but ok This was a huge site and well we got there just as the demo squad had started by the looks of things i have already posted up the power station and the demolition of the chimney which took place at a later date. We arrived and parked up ME Cuban bloodhound and Wolfism who had found this not so little jem :lol: we had a fantastic time our best to be unobtrusive to security on the site Overhead http://www.flashea...17.3&r=357&src=msl
