Williamsons Fire and rescue Equipment Oldham. My first report of 2015 and my second explore since september 2014. In fact september 2014 was the first month that i hadn't done an explore since joining in 2009, i guess having children will do that that to you. I can't complain but i do miss getting out their. Slowly things are getting back to some sort of normality as normal as it can be. So chomping at the bit to get out myself and camera shy were doing driving about looking for spots, we saw this from and from the outside it looks like not to be bothered with however on closer inspection the inside yet trashed had some nice surprises and some nice original features and for some reason horse's stables ? not sure why.
Williamsons has been trading at mumps in oldham at the same premises since the 1920's a family run business specialising in fire fighting equipment and later refurbished conveyor systems. The business closed in 2011, some say this was due to the tram system put in. not too sure if that was the case sadly i can't seem to find out to much about the business or building. The building itself was a joy to explore and has a bit of George Barnsleys feel about it with all the old wooden shelving, bit of a warren in their and some lovely old rooms. Another long lost family business goes under which is always sad to see. So with any luck i will be back posting now and always on the look out for something new no matter how epic. Enjoy
