Redman Fisher Engineering Ltd, a member of the Hill & Smith Group, is the leading manufacturer of open grid flooring, rellocated to Telford.
This is opposite where the old Beans Foundry was in Tipton.


I posted this as lead and rumour quite a while back and there were no takers. Eventually I got around to seeing it myself and although it was quite mint in there it was also very empty and disappointing overall.
After a mooch around the vast factory floor I made my way upstairs to the offices. I could see no way of avoiding the PIRs in the narrow corridors so I quickly rushed around taking a few shots before leaving.



I'm fairly certain this building along with the old Dudley Guest Hospital were film locations for the zombie flick The Girl with all the gifts. On a couple of occasions I went passed the site again and once I saw a heavy presence of film trailers. I also found this fundraiser online https://mydonate.bt.com/fundraisers/shewhobringsgifts


One of the reasons for posting this late is because I was hoping to tie this in with some other factories I checked out which were part of a now abandoned "coseley eco park". Instead Skelton Group Investments Limited are planning to build 900 homes and a supermarket on there. The other factories I mentioned are on the old Newey's Business Park in Tipton which also includes some of the old Beans Foundry buildings.
I'll get around to posting that eventually.

Been a long time coming this one - disappointing to say the least! Excellent work nonetheless.

Ahh so that's what this place was! It's at least partially back in use now for some smaller businesses, or at least it looked that way. The big Redman Fisher sign is long gone.

Good effort shame it was a tad empty. Loved the Briton door closer.

Good to see inside even if it wasn't as dated as it looked from outside!
Always got the timing wrong with this one, then one day that sign had disappeared and I sort of lost interest in it!
