Williams Fasteners, Sheffield - April 2016

[degenerate]

Before you go any further I'll warn you now this place is pretty barren and I'm posting this as an update to what it's like now. Most has now been demolished with the remains heavily covered in graffiti including some of Sheffield’s usual suspects, Coloquix, coLor and Phlegm.

Williams Fasteners is a trading name of Williams Brothers, which was founded in 1870 by George Williams and describes itself as the "leading UK suppliers of Industrial Fasteners and Fixings and Precision Engineered Special Fasteners". Williams Brothers relocated in 1997 to their current HQ on the Tinsley Industrial Estate leaving this building behind.

I'm not all that into graff but when its done well like this its cool as it improves an otherwise shitty building. Its a problem when you have a cool building with shitty graff added....but lets not go down that road

They must all be good mates as they always paint the same places from what I've seen. Tbh though with the exception of Phlegm and Eugene Booms I'm a bit bored of their stuff, gets a bit samey really....

I know coLor and Eugene Booms are pals and paint a lot together. I know what you mean about them being samey once you've seen a Coloquix you've seen most of them - still good stuff though  :wink:
