Here we go - prompted by Matt's comment. Any chance we could pin this please Mr Admin sir?
Just to get us started, a picture of a roofless shed, a lurcher, and one of the chaps who took away the asbestos roof. ![]() |

Even with all the PPE, asbestos removal is not a job I'd fancy ....

I do like a Victorian pumping station - those enormous beam engines are just amazing.

The Victorians definitely over engineered everything they built that's for sure

![]() From your earlier post, am I correct thinking that this is Claymills pumping station? Since I don't live all that far away from it, I really ought to visit, preferably when it's in steam!

I visited Crossness Pumping Station on the South Bank of the Thames a few years ago on an open day. Part of Joseph Bazalgette's remarkable Victorian transformation of the capital's sewage system. Such an ornate and remarkable building. I'll have to hunt out a few pics...
