Firstly Kudos to Speed and Clebby for finding and sharing another stunner.
Soon as me and @host saw this is was straight at the top of that imaginary list we all have, right up our street as they say. and we wasted no time in heading down.
What an absolute time warp and as stated previously hard enough getting in to keep it like that.

The factory made diamond and precious stone jewellery mounted in platinum and gold, later turning to general silverware.
The business traded until 2011 but manufacturing in parts of the building stopped it seems somewhere around the early 80's hence the amazing array of original machinery left defunct.

Wicked set of photos and looks like there's a lot of interesting bits n pieces of history in there. You did well to get into this place, I've regularly checked for a way in after the 2 other reports went up. There always seems to be people floating around that cab office so never had a good enough chance to take a look. Good work those photos are ace!
