Final destination of the day for Irishmanlost and myself.
I wanted to visit the smaller of the three mill building (having reported on the two larger ones in previous months)

Access - almost straight forward, compared to access to the main site.

As can be seen, it is only a two storey building but it is separated by a diversion in the River Lagan

There are still alot of artifacts around, machinery parts, equipment etc
and one extra hole in the floor - where my foot disappeared through it

A workers rebellion perhaps ?

The light towards mid afternoon was low

In an upstairs office sat an old binary computer - and if you look at the screen the images are still burnt onto it, making it look as if the spirits within the mill are IT literate!

Just before the Mill closed, a lot of the machinery was earmarked to be shipped out to India. The resulting fire in the holding area destroyed all .
