Williamsons Fire and rescue Equipment Oldham - July 2015

[coolboyslim]

Another nice little report. Visited here with @ACID- REFLUX and Reich. Not got a clue really on place but decided what the hell. After drains all day why not have a building it was getting quite late but was a good night. Have to also say that without Reich It may not have happened. Anyways looked an interesting place. So in we went.

History
Found this interesting
MYSTERY surrounds a landmark business in Mumps as its approaches its centenary year.

Oldham family business Williamsons, established in 1920, supplies fire and rescue equipment, tools and industrial machinery.

But on Monday workers were sent home at lunch time and told the company had ceased trading.

Calls and emails to the business have gone unanswered, and yesterday the business was closed.

In 2011 the company’s Susan Steer expressed concern about Metrolink’s impact on her family’s business.
the company went into liquidation in June 2013. But like most are saying it seems closed for a while in a lot of places. Im struggling to find more info thats new

It was a nice place to see glad i went. On with the pics. Now for some reason think cause of drains my cam was a bit iffy but pics don't seem to bad. Reich noticed outside my lens had specs on that for some reason i couldn't see through finder DOH !!!!! lol...

Thought about time i stuck this here. Hope you enjoy. Thanks all

Hope you like. It was deffo a cool place when we went. But think its fair trashed now sadly.

Thanks for looking all.

I like this despite never mind the equipment 'issues'. Looks a good explore and well captured. Like the simplicity of the 2 ladders, appeals to me for some reason

Thx jones. And yea the ladders was cool. Big empty room just two ladders stood up. And deffo was an intresting place with stables etc. And the pics have kinda a warm feel to them. Think acid said its made them look Filmy and it kinda does make them look slighty different and cool.

Film look......as if shot by a  Penthouse Photographer  :-o  (the old lads will know what i mean )

I think it was a bit of a risk leaving that "Turd" smear on your lens but it seems to have worked out mate  :-D

Pity we were late too the party here (as were most it seems) too trashed for my liking, although it was funny trying to time the light painting to the gaps in traffic so we didn"t blind anyone. And a bonus of having @Reich with us so we could "Post" him in lol
