Apparently theres not a lot of it left…

flames were licking jammy thats for sure.

think it only took out one of the warehouses, but dumped asbestos all over the neighbouring properties off the roof. the locals have been campaigning for the place to shut since it opened.

looks like they got there wish

Yes it is and there still running the same old trucks they had brand new in 1994 …

:open_mouth: :laughing:

Ironic isn’t it that the government year’s ago was pushing people to have asbestos removed from roof’s of factories and warehouse’s yet neglected to remove the very same stuff from roof’s on building’s they own …
And get caught by having the place go up in smoke and dump the stuff all over burton and south derbyshire …
You see TNT was/is renting the grounds and buildings from the home office …

Paul did you know that Christian Salvesen were taking over the site fromTNT?.
