When you were on top of the mill in Salford, you looked across to a grey bridge over the railway. On the far side of that bridge, there used to be a train station, which closed, I think, in the late 60's. It was Pendleton Station, not to be confused with Pendleton Broad Street, which was a hundred yards or so further up the hill. The main station building was to the left on the far side of the bridge as you were looking at it and to get to the other platform, you had to exit the station and cross over that road bridge to another entrance. I left Salford to live abroad about 25 years ago, but I still have memories of catching the train at that station, so I wish you'd gone and had a look to see if anything remains of it.

The building screams Art Deco! From the outside to the detail above the lifts and the railings on the stairs! The old map shows a solid building in the space, while the new picture shows a building in just part of that space! I think you are right! Its a newer building built in the Art Deco Style! Now that being said...why? The old building was built in 1891 and Art Deco was from Mid 20's. So after only 35 yrs the older building maybe burned down? Or outlived it use and was downsized to a smaller building! Lots of questions haha! That wheel looked really old! From a wagon or maybe a workings! Nice to see Danny again! Thanks Martin!

Original building was probably build in 1779 instead of 1891 (www.gracesguide.co.uk/Bank_Mill_(Salford)), and had several fires and damage of storms in it's life time.

The perfect thing to watch on a Sunday! The cellars remind me of under an old mill in Burslem. Used at the time as the Nisa today cold store depot, it had been a coffin factory, a bakery and several other things going back to the 19th century. I had a summer job laying concrete in the lorry park between sixth form and Uni. We found many gems in there including a very old photocopier dating to the 1970s that was huge and filled a room in the cellar. We also found stacks of old Beanos dating back to 1980. I wish I had kept them! Some of the rooms had been sealed up contents and all when the building was hacked around for its next use. We found three rooms done out as 1960s offices and a lift all hidden behind plasterboarding. I think the place was demolished in around 1999.

I found at the internet, Bank Mill was there since 1779 (so more then 100 years older as the date Danny found). The mill suffered of 3 large fires in 1828 and 1829 and damage of a storm in 1839. Can't find when or why the original building was demolished but I can imagine it as a 150 year old building with a lot of structural damages of the fires and hurricane, it might be just a pretty unsafe structure. Good chance the mill went bankrupt in the crisis of 1927. The building you visited is clearly late 1920's, maybe early 1930's. The Art-Deco style, the green stone in the hallway, the staircase, the tiling, it is all screaming "I'm 1920's/1930's". www.gracesguide.co.uk/Bank_Mill_(Salford)

If I would find something like that in Latvia, we had wheels like that for our horse carts back in the early 90's, but to really tell you would have to see the axis. If it would be from a cart, the axis would have a larger diameter. Such wheels could still be used on fields, because they provide better traction than rubber wheels. We mainly used them for transporting hay off the fields. For other tasks we used rubber wheels.

Super video. Love that mill the lift was astounding! As a heads up, take care when around microwave antennas that you might find on a roof - don't get close to them. You're always sensible and respectful so you'll be fine. Microwave transmitters can be dangerous if they're higher power and you get too close to them, usually within a few metres but it depends on the transmission power. See the guard rail on the roof (13:49 ) as an indication of a safe distance. There should also be yellow warning signs nearby that provide information if they are transmitting at potentially hazardous levels, and whilst it is boring for explorers like us, for larger towers there should ideally be no access available via secure locked doors that only the telecom company can operate. If you're not sure, just keep a distance. At close range microwave transmitters will heat human tissue, however they pose no risk once you're a few metres away as the energy dissipates. This has nothing to do with those dumb wild "theories" going about. Also great to hear a mention about asbestos, it's fine if you don't touch it but best avoided. 👍 This video looks perfectly safe, but for further info for those doing explores, see this vid kzbin.info/www/bejne/q53ZlnVnmJibedU or this doc www.firehouse.com/safety-health/article/10513827/the-facts-and-dangers-of-rooftop-transmitting-devices-on-highrise-buildings

That Bank Mill building is fabulous, but it ain’t Victorian, if it was it would be Victorian in style. Art Nouveau would be 1900’s to 1920’s, after that things stopped due to wars and building started properly again in the 1950’s, imitating the golden era of the 20’s, hence lots of Art Deco looking building were built in the 1950’s. This looks like a typical example of that. The brickwork, windows and other features lead me to believe its 1950’s. Not sure if that spiral staircase is original, but I absolutely LOVE it.

Nice one Martin , such a shame to see that beautiful old building being left to rot 😟. Another one for you to look at is the Albert. Dock in Liverpool, for a basic warehouse/ utility building the architecture is stunning 🤩🧱👍🏼

Martin, I loved the cinematography in this video!! Using the selfie stick, pointing in a way where I'm seeing things through your eyes, and letting the sound stay raw... it was perfect. It was an immersive experience, one I very much enjoyed (here in the states)! I felt like I was right there, exploring this you. Keep up the good work! Thank you so much!
