hipperholme brickworks halifax 22/2/09

Been thinking about this for a while now.

Some of you guys/gals have been here since day 1. Cheers for all your support over this time.
Was wondering if anyone was wanting to keep an eye on things and have MOD rights here.

Go easy on me as this is my first post about my first explore on Sunday around Hipperholme brickworks in Halifax. Looked around a derilict bit before going into the more interesting part of the brickworks where there was much more to see. Pretty uneventful apart from the few hoodies trying to start fires who then proceeded to run off like girls when they saw us. Must have thought we were security.
Here are the pic's
first of all the really derilict parts

Good first report, looks like a JCB graveyard in your 3rd pic!? Like the good old Halifax brick too! Keep it up-good start. Smile

Lets see,
Ruined building -tick
abandoned chair - tick
control panel - tick
silhoutte at window/door -tick
unidentified objects in the rubble -tick
The good documentation of site with the promise of different things to see if I visit _ tick
Good combination of interiors, closeups and exteriors - tick
Seems to have got it pretty much nailed down. Good work. I may pop out and visit this myself. Any shots of the JCB's?

Thanks for all the positive feedback I really appreciate it. Although next time I'll be taking the checklist so I can tick everything off. Here's the only shot of the JCB's as we had to hot foot it out of there as some guy turned up. Think there is a live industrial unit there.
Here's the pic
