Been looking forward to this for a while now since I saw a report on it. This place is like a time capsule. A bit messed up but there's a mind-boggling amount of stuff just left behind. Apparently the locals are somewhat protective of it.

Visited with Tom Sherman and Stopford_Lad

Not got much to talk about in terms of history, but here's a small excerpt from Wikipedia.

Langley Mill, founded by William Smith in 1826, became the biggest silk printing, dyeing and finishing works in the world.
Langley Mill later went on to become Specialised Automobile Services, a specialist wire wheel manufacturer for classic and modern cars.

Apologies for my grainy images, my tripod hasn't arrived yet but I managed to improvise one a few times.

I really love this one.

A bit over exposed. Stopford_Lad sporting a hockey mask in the background.

This place is largely exposed to the elements now.
