This old factory in Nottingham city has been left derelict for years after a fire gutted it. Whoever owns it probably doesn't have the money to demolish it or restore it as accommodation. Shame.
nrhp # 76001964- Tremont Nail Factory District is a historic district in Wareham, Massachusetts. It makes up the area occupied by the former Tremont Nail Company. In the early 19th century, Parker Mills was constructed by shipwrights as a cotton mill. During the War of 1812, it was partially burned by the British. In 1819, another building was constructed on the site of the former mill by Isaac and Jared Pratt to manufacture nails. At this time, the Parker Mills Nail Company was born. The mill was partially destroyed by fire again in 1836. Reconstruction was completed in 1848, and the buildings haven't changed much since. The bell in the cupola in the original facility bears a date of 1851. The main mill is one of five buildings at the site over 100 years old. There are also 60 nail machines in the building, many over 125 years old. Until the 1920s, the mill was also powered by awater wheel which powered overhead shafting.[2]
The district was added to the National Register of Historic Places in 1976.

Okay this isn't really a factory or a fire. I liked the way the metal wine rack looked with my orange lamp as a background.
Building complex of the former bleaching plant of textile factory. First buildings facilitating the process of drying yarn and whitening fabrics were build in the 1850s. Today's exterior view of these buildngs ome from the end of 19-th and begining of 20-th century. Now in one of these buildings is situated Flax Textile Factory of Żyrardów, which is continued the flax production.

Although this is a staged photo, it shows what I have been up to minus the mess during the actual reconstruction of a sawmill. This sawmill started off as a Pola factory kit imported by Atlas over 40 years ago. The wall were originally brick with an opening on both ends for freight cars, and it had a brick out building with a tall brick smoke chimney. If you are on older modeler, you probably built one.
After about 15 years, to Americanize the building, I replaced the walls with corrugated sheet metal from Campbell Scale Models and kept the same windows and some of the internal supports. I also replaced the plastic simulated sheet metal roof with more aluminum roofing glued to sheet plastic. Unfortunately, the sheet styrene I first used with the roof sections was too thin to offer good support, and to make matter worse, I glued it with Walther's Goo. I HATE that cursed stuff! It stinks, it's messy, and it does not hold. OK, the upper roof held together, but the lower roofs sagged many scale feet and looked horrible.
The sad, beat up, old factory sat in a storage box for three years after my new layout was up and running, and other old buildings had been refurbished. I needed an American style sawmill rather than the two European style sawmills that Pola offered in the 1960's and imported by Atlas and later by Model Power. Walthers produced a sawmill first in HO, then N scale that was part of a sawmill-lumber yard-paper mill complex featured in a fabulous ad in the January 1997 Model Railroader and reviewed in the August 1997 issue.
I did not copy but drew my inspiration from the Walthers sawmill kit which is just about the same size as my old Pola factory. With nothing to lose, I ripped off the old lower roof sections and pulled off the real aluminum roofing material. Next I cut some sub-roof sections from thicker (0.040") sheet styrene from Evergreen Scale Models and bonded the Campbell roofing with J B Weld epoxy instead of that nasty Goo. The same sheet also forms the new concrete floor of the sawmill. To reinforce the building I made vertical supports of ESM styrene strips 0.040" thick and 1/4." I use the same strip stock for making internal alignment keys to position removable buildings from their bases, shore up poor building wall joints from the inside, and as a horizontal tab to keep custom made roof sections from slipping off their walls.
I do most of my cutting on the plastic cutting board originally made for sewing and smaller, more precise cuts on the adjustable Dupli-Cutter cutting jig. These days I must use an Opti-Visor to see what I'm doing, and an Ott-Lite shows me the way. When I'm not using the Ott-Lite for model work, I use it for doing my nails.
Would a factory girl dress like this? Yes! I used to supervise a group of girls in a semiconductor wafer fab facility. Some girls always dressed pretty and wore full makeup, even in a factory. Some never did, and most were in between. Quite often, the girls on my second shift would hit the clubs immediately after they left at 11 pm, and some third shift girls came to work straight from the clubs.

Once upon a time, there was a mysterious factory up above the cloud , right under the stars and moon. Supposedly said that there are angels who design sweet dreams for dreamers of the SLgrid. Once in a while , those angels came down to spread the dream dusts to people's bed and pillows so that they can have a nice dream experience. Some say, that the dreams can come true to a special someone. There is no other way to find out than to dream with us! So, Let's Dream!

Europe, Netherlands, Zuid Limburg, Maastricht, Sint Pietersberg, ENCI cement factory, clinker storage building (uncut)
The ENCI cement factory at the edge of the limestone quarry. It produces klinker (clinker) and portland cement. Clinker is semi-finished cement produced by “heating limestone (calcium carbonate) with small quantities of other materials (such as clay) to 1450 °C in a kiln, in a process known as calcination”. Cement, the finished product, “is made by grounding the clinker with a small amount of gypsum into a powder to make 'Ordinary Portland Cement', the most commonly used type of cement (often referred to as OPC). Portland cement is a basic ingredient of concrete, mortar and most non-specialty grout. Portland cement may be grey or white.
The most common use for Portland cement is in the production of concrete. Concrete is a composite material consisting of aggregate (gravel and sand), cement, and water. As a construction material, concrete can be cast in almost any shape desired, and once hardened, can become a structural (load bearing) element.” (Source: Wikipedia). Through this it became the building material of choice of modernist architects. And in this era it still is.
The lime ENCI stone quarry will be closed in 2018 and as a consequence the klinker production will be stopped some time after it and the kiln etc will demolished. After that the quarry and demolished part of the industrial complex will be redeveloped. The quarry will become a park. For in-depth information about the transformation process the master plan (Dutch) is: here.
A preliminary step of this redevelopment process was already taken in 2008. The ‘Peutz-building’, an industrial building that lost its function when a part of the manufacturing process was moved to Rotterdam in the 80s was redeveloped as theatre and cultural centre AINSI in 2008. A clip about it from this period is: here and a recent one here
The facilities on display in the FG is the central clinker storage facility. In the BG is the other side of the valley of the river Maas.
