Not a huge amount to say about this place, just wanted to share a few photos. Came here with @Buffalo
Explore was pretty straight forward, nothing much left of the place it was still worth a quick visit though.
Thanks for looking :thumb
Stephenson Bros originally manufactured soap based agents for the processing of wool. In Kelly's Bradford Postal Directory of 1927 the building is listed as the business premises of Messrs Stephenson Brothers Ltd Dry Salters.
Some rotten and spongy floors here. Visited with three non-members...
No history unfortunately, and it will soon be luxury apartments
:) Narrowly avoiding death with Raz, Jamie_P & Rott3nWood.
The Explore;
So we went for a look at the Conditioning House but other than teleportation i couldnt see a way in. So not worth traversing a wall with concreted glass...
Had last week off work and conveniently so did Raz, so obviously went went on a derp hunt.
On this occasion our travels (and my pug) took us to Bradford for what i would describe as a series of catastrophic fail, so on our way back we decided to go the back way in the hope we might stuble...
Explored with Raz
History;
Dalton Mills was once the largest textile mill in the region, employing over 2000 workers. It was built by Joseph Craven in 1869, replacing the original mill which was owned by Rachel Leach in the 1780's.
The mill was named Dalton Mills after the manager employed...
Visited with the usual lot.
One of the few big mills that I've yet to do/see in Bradford. The mill suffered from a fire in 2010, the damage you'll see in the pictures, although it was contained to the top floor, the lack of roof is slowly effecting all the other floors.
More specifically the flats above this pub which I believe was named after me. Visited with Fudgey wudgey this place hasn't been reported much but is next to YBS as being my favourite roof top in Bradford. Fudge had a blonde moment and forgot his charged battery for his camera

BRAP BRAP BRAP SWEET TING
I was coming back from Newcastle (the real one not the fake one near Stoke) and needed a break from driving so decided to get a bit moist.
Bypass is a massive pipe pretty deep under Bradford with lots of walking for a few redeeming features such as the huge climbs up...
A really nice mill with a little hidden jem.The workshop is like a time capsule worth the trip just to see this, a little history....
