Liked this. The old presses and work benches, I could just imagine workers there. Loved the report and links, old photos for contrast. Great report, and as Ojay says if now sealed, this is a glimpse of history we would of never seen. Thanks for posting it.:D

Quality visit & report. So reminiscent of my apprenticeship at the Birminham Mint just down the road from there. Rope stamps & fly presses.
If anyone is planning a visit into any of the Hockley sites please PM me.
(Make it quick though. I'm moving to Sheffield soon.)

This is one I think we are probably glad is sealed up, needs to be protected.
