Report - Glenfield scrap yard Leicester (May 2020)

[Satan_Seeker666]

So this one I can’t confirm that it’s definitely unused as it has an entry way on a road. But I’ve been several times now and it’s never changed besides this one time I found the remains of a weed farm


From trying to work out who it belongs to and anything about it all I’ve found it that it belongs to Glenfeild motor spares and the last time anyone really said anything about it was 2 years ago. Even though there’s not really any history to it the pace is pretty cool!

It’s located not far from the railway inn pub. There’s a lovely long walk behind the pub and the shops which you can get to it via. The yard is mostly full of big containers filled with car parts or ones that are burnt out. It’s a pretty cool looking spot and I plan on going back with a fire performer I know to take some cool videos.

Check out some of the photos here (sorry there not incredible as it’s my old camera)

Doesn't look used. Photos are fine, nothing wrong with them.

It is not being used but is an asset to the company creditors [well on paper anyway] latest winding up document from liquidators dated Aug 2020. The court ordered compulsory liquidation in 2016. Reading the documents looks as if the Birmingham address listed above as their HQ is actually the office of the liquidators. The company's HQ was actually Lonsdale High Street Lutterworth Leicestershire LE17 4AD in 2016. It's taken pages of documents to get this far and I've changed the comment above
