Report - Firth brown medical centre Sheffield January 2021

[Marc067]

Morning. All this is my second post I’ve taken note of the comments left on my first post and tried to improve on it think I’ve posted it in the correct group couldn’t decide if it’s above or underground so enough of that and on with the report

Little urbex this morning. With benjo and sb
Firth brown medical centre Sheffield It’s pretty trashed. But a few relics remain. Been fairly local just wish I visited ten years since

Firth Brown Steels was initially formed in 1902, when Sheffield steelmakers John Brown and Company exchanged shares and came to a working agreement with neighbouring company Thomas Firth & Sons. In 1908 the two companies came together and established the Brown Firth Research Laboratories and it was here, in 1912, under the leadership of Harry Brearley they developed high chrome stainless steel. The companies continued under their own management until they formally merged in 1930 becoming Firth Brown Steels. The company was amalgamated into Sheffield Forgemasters in 1982.

Much better formatting, well done. Maybe a few externals and a few wider shots, not all close ups. But not a bad report

Did anyone ever get in the bits further down? I'm sure there was more too it than what you could access from the medical rooms

@Danny boy There are memories on line from people who worked at the company. they say "the underground medical centre was on Carlisle Street East". Another one says "the Photographic Department from 1964 until 1980 and it was located at the bottom of the ramp next to the sandwich shop, which was next to the Nelson Pub. At the bottom of the ramp, turning left, was the creep lab and right, the photographic department. This comprised a large studio, cine editing room, various darkrooms and print finishing rooms. At the rear of the cine editing room as a vertical ladder which emerged from a "hole" near where the chauffeurs garage was located. It was a casualty clearing place in the war but the room shown on the 28 days later site must be the one on Carlisle Street, since the Norroy place has been, to the best of my knowledge, probably filled in when the new building works above were undertaken. The place was ideal for photography as there was no daylight to interfere in the processes". If I can find this out in a couple of minutes I think you would find it better to do your own research rather than just ask for a location

Wow... I'm surprised this is still doable, about 6 years since I last saw it crop up.
Good eerie little explore back then with the metal bed etc
Not sure I could squeeze in there nowadays! Lol
