Cheadle Bleachworks, Manchester

This site just shows what will happen if buildings are left unsecured. While there has been some fire damage, the site is just wrecked. Not much roof remains, there is hardly any glass left, and yet the boilers remain on site for some reason. Why the owners have allowed it to get to this state is anyone’s guess as I would say a lot of the site is in danger of collapse. The photos mainly taken on black and white film, and I think these work better with the contrasty light. For some reason, I found a certain beauty in the decay.
