Visited with the aim of just getting at least one of the headstocks (apparently the tallest in europe!) done but we managed to get through what was left of the site & what a real eye opener it was!

What was left of this once huge site


Rope changing winch (Headstock 2)






No.1 Winder


No.1 Winder control room






















Rotary converters? in the electrical control room






Spare motor brushes


Electrical control room from outside


One leg of headstock 1











....Lister;~)
