There is an excessive amount of pipe porn in this report and some mild HDR ..the external shots have been spruced up to convey the full horror of the weather !
Well…the weather..the pigeons and the infamous metal recyclers were going to be against us today..after a rather silly way of getting in (yep should have hopped over the front gate!) we had a good mooch about this place. A lot of the machinery has been stripped out but there are the occasional bits still in place. Pigeons have taken over!
Views from the roof would have been amazing if the dam sky had been blue, as it was the overcast dull grey sky did kind of put a cramp in the day…especially after the big ladder climb onto the roof !
The Rank Hovis Flour Mill was built in 1865 and was designed by Edward Welby Pugin. It closed in 2005. The mill survived two world wars, but sustained heavy bombing during World War 2. There are actually air raid tunnels underneath the site.
