Report - Bid Food - Scarisbrick, Lancashire - March 2021

[MK83]

History - As per the other report on this from last year there isn't much history to be found. This site was owned by Bid food who previously traded as booker foods and 3663. The site closed in 2018. The warehouse seems to have been built on the site of an old farm dating to the 1900's and the farmhouse and an outbuilding remain.

Explore - This is local to us and looked interesting on the report from last year so we decided to take a look. It's quite a large site and very easy to access. There are 4 buildings, a bungalow which we didn't go in as it looks as though the floors have been stripped, a warehouse, an old farmhouse and it's outbuilding. The site is in much worse condition than the previous report but there's some interesting features and some cool stuff in the various buildings.

The picture of the freezer doesn't convey the smell when we opened it.....

Thanks for looking.

Thanks. The wallpaper in the stairwell was one of our favourite bits. Quite out of place compared to the rest of the decor.

It is a great shot, very 1970s

Just went today and, yes, just as you said no problem. Pretty empty tbh, no desks but still a good few corridor porn pics lol.

Always confuses me on why these sites always remove the hard paperwork and leave the backed up data drives

That's what we thought, the old 19th century farmhouse merging with the modern warehouse and office buildings was cool. Strange that they didn't just demolish the old farmhouse and build the modern buildings over them.
