I Visited this location with klee666 and Rizlex and gained access easily thanks to directions from PopPunkJamie, thanks again. we spent around 4-5 hours in there and the pictures I have posted are only a fraction of what we took. We explored most of the underground tunnels which are vast, and all off the surrounding buildings we could gain access to. Overall a great day and luckily the weather held out.

Guest Keen and Nettlefolds (Midlands) Ltd was established in 1948 and was made up of The Bolt & Nut Division in Darlaston, and the Screw Division in Smethwick, (Birmingham). In the late 1960s the headquarters of Guest, Keen & Nettlefolds Ltd., by then an investment company, adjoined the Heath Street Works, Smethwick, a 50-acre complex run by G.K.N. and employed some 4,500 people.
