Hope this one is more interesting for you

Visited Lytes Ladders which is in Ystalafera in Jan this year and thoroughly enjoyed the exlpore. Came across it by mistake was actually down that way to visit a different place but this came as a very nice surprise.

Just to give you a heads up have been back there since as there was a certain part of the building we couldn't get too and there were police cars outside and walking around the building so not sure what was going on, and there is security living in his caravan on site.

Bit of history: Established in 1947, Lyte have been manufacturing aluminum and glass fiber access equipment for over 60 years. Ladders & Towers from Lyte have been used in many countries all over the world and for all sorts of reasons.

Manufactured in Swansea, Lyte are proud to be one of the few companies still producing products in the UK. The majority of the Lyte portfolio is manufactured at the factory in South Wales.

As the business has done well they have now re-located to a bigger and better location.

Here goes:

There were a lot of little rooms like this which looked liked the main machinery was kept. Unfortunately they are all in pieces now

There were stacks and stacks of brand new ladders:

This part of the building truly was trashed

That's more like it, nice bit of old industrial stuff. :)

Not an awful lot left, and the local pikeys have clearly been busy by the looks of things.

Thanks for posting. :)
