Allied Mills / Ainscough Flour Mill - Burscough, Lancs - September 2010

Visited with Host

Did you know flour is brown, before being dyed white? I didn't, but Host did, he likes bread.

Visited on a miserable weekday, this place is dark, damp and VERYdangerous in parts. 7 floors of rotting, saturated timber isn't fun, especially when your exploring partner goes through it in front of you you


Anywho, I've struggled to find much information on this, but it was a flour mill and it ceased operations in 1988. Enjoy...

I wasn't joking about the floors.

I liked this place too and I agree, the floor is very dangerous in places.
