First explore with my new camera - Visited with @Fatpanda, @Butters & @R0tt3nW00d

 ​

History;

 ​

The historic Conditioning House was established as a wool testing centre through a special Act of Parliament passed in 1887. It was built around 1902 and in its heyday employed hundreds of people but Bradford Council decided to sell it and the building was closed. Nearly 70% of all wool produced in the UK would have been brought here for testing prior to use.​

The explore;

 ​

I had heard that this place had some dodgey floors... but that was a serious understatement. Generally if your above the second floor, it has the consistancy and appearance of weetabix (y)  Some nice bits though amongst the death traps.​
