First report so i'll start off small .

An automotive parts factory which was shut down towards the end of 2008 after being in operation for 20 years. Upon closure the factory axed 200 jobs. In its prime the factory supplied a lot of parts to major manufacturers in the general area, now the boring stuff is out of the way to the photos !.

also if anyone has any more info on the history of this place it would be interesting to know about =]
