My Brother & I were told about the old Dewhurst factory in Ystalfera and wanted to take a look.

We located the place, got in and started walking around, took loads of pics.

We found a boiler room, took a few more and turned to go out of the door.

I looked up and saw the dreaded red blinking PIR light , pointed it out to RB and calmly but speedily left the area. :eek:

Once we were outside, we decided to take 5 and wait to see what the response was.

We waited 30mins and no-one turned up and as we turned to leave, I saw the sign over the door of the factory was GMF, we looked to our right and there was the Dewhurst factory. :lol: :lol:

So we decided to take a look in there as well. both great places, if a bit chavved up and mostly stripped.

The GMF Factory.

Interesting fire protection system. ty-wrap melts, releases the wire.

Which releases the lever with the weight on.
