Does anyone have any pictures of that burnt out building that used to stand next to the parade of shops (netto, iceland and priceless shoes) I went to take pictures today and its been bulldozed after being there for years. Does anyone know the story behind it?It had a triangular roof which was all charred and one of the walls had come downAnyway any info or pics would be great

It was part of the tip.It burnt down one night, it was just full of rubbish, but deemed not that burnt to stay up for a while, I've got some recent images I can dig out, I watched it burn as well.

It was part of the council rubbish disposal site, that particular building was the bailing plant, i think it opened about 1977, the old place was on lennox rd what now is the virgin actibe gym, the grey burned out building burned out in maybe 2001 its been like that years, i got some pics but only thru the fence.
