SJ5533 : Abandoned industrial estate in Prees

taken 3 years ago, near to Prees, Shropshire, England

Abandoned industrial estate in Prees
Abandoned industrial estate in Prees
I was struck by this site for many reasons; not only do many small rural villages actually boast a large industrial estate I do not see many with such a large one in such a state of abandonment and neglect. I assume it has been out of operation for quite some time. It has a Marie-Celeste feel though, with the security gatehouse here left like the guard has just stepped out and walked off site.

I expect it will become a large housing estate. That is where the profit is these days.
