Built in 1957, it's purpose was to service the Stanley moor Reservoir!
Sadly there were serious leaks due to it's position over a fault line and it had to be decommissioned! So this pump house became redundant.
I came across this two years ago after going to photograph something else nearby, I'd tried repeatedly to find a way in; it is quite a drive for me but one thing with Urbex - persistence can pay off! Some places took years but today, luck was on my side. And it didn't disappoint!
