The old mill

Being demolished over a two year period, photo from 2012. Care was taken to dismantle it in a careful way rather than with dozers and wrecking balls. The original buildings took up about six acres of land.

Among the best spots to squat in with no wifi though.

Haha - true. No toilet, either. Well, I guess that doesn't matter in a place like this!

It was great, I enjoyed checking on it a few times to see the demolition progress. Kind of sad when it was finally gone!

Sometimes , like here, dereliction keeps a sort of very strange charm..here absolutely enhanced by your own amazing editing!

Must have been a huge building Diane! I agree with Bea!

It was, yes. The company even had its own rail spur for loading lumber. All of the mills had them, so there are many abandoned rails around, and vacant spaces where mills used to be. Thank you, Rosa.
