Kirkheaton Fine Works
Took a trip over the Huddersfield to finally get to see this place before its to late. Hooked up with a few people, nice to meet you KingElvis for the first time :).
I was glad i went across but also a bit gutted to be honest, it's condition is no where near as good as early reports show it to be and i realize i should of gone back then and not waited! Still it's worth seeing and i reckon ill go back as there was so much i didn't shoot that looking back i should have done.
Plenty of reports already logged so no need to go to much into details on the place, the rain was on so no externals, maybe next time
Love this, vintage machinery

Later on the tour we came to the bottom of it, that was good
