Joe, i feel the same..... its like a little kid that fell down, you just wanna pick him up and dust him off and everything will be ok :) so sad that its gone

its so sad...

i'm not sure of the legislation in the UK, but here in Australia drugs and poisons are classified using a drug schedule, which currently runs from S2 to S9. The S1 classification, which is now defunct, was for "substances which are of such extreme danger to life as to warrant their being supplied only by medical practitioners, nurse practitioners authorised...pharmacists, dentists, veterinary surgeons or persons licensed..."
(thanks wikipedia!)

S2 - Pharmacy medicine
S3 - Pharmicist-only medicine
S4 - Prescription-only medicine
S5 - Caution
S6 - Poison
S7 - Dangerous Poison
S8 - Controlled Drug
S9 - Prohibited Substance

just a bit of info. :)

wow.... amazing!

it is gorgeous... but the middle of the gate, where the chainis, looks like a face, lol

I was so sad to hear about the loss of such a beatiful place

WOW! Thank you Motts! I enjoy your photos so much

I don't think anyone even knew about the demolition until it was too late.

They are ash silos. The coal ash from the boilers furnace was sucked via vavuum and stored in these and periodically emptied from the bottom into dump trucks. Corroison could be rampant because coal ash + water = sulfuric acid. A thousand thank-yous to Mr. Mott for the many hours I have spent on this site.

a gorgeous color

this place could of been restored and turned into historical site it si extremely sad that all that fine craftmanship was destroyed. i wonder if anyon e tried to protest aganist the bulldozing!

It's hard to believe this place has only been abandoned since 2003.

LMAO@ Nathan's comment.

Wow, this is a complete surprise, when compared with the room in the previous photo.

i see the little person!!!
