Mine's a Pint
History
The Brewery in Ulverston has been brewing beer since 1755, finally ceasing production in 1991. Hartleys took over the Brewery sometime around 1896. In July of 1982 the company, Brewery and accompanying 54 local pubs were bought out by Frederic Robinson and son of Stockport, brewing continued on site until the 8th november 1991.
A total of 236 years of brewing came to an end and the site became a depot and distribution centre for Hartleys beers which were now being brewed at the Unicorn brewery in stockport. There was also on site joinery workshop and maintainence team who carry out work on the Hartleys pubs.
I believe that parts of the brewing equipment that have already been stripped from the building are now in use at the Black Sheep Brewery in Masham.
Hartleys have since relocated to an out of town site at Backbarrow and are now trying to entice an as yet unnamed large supermarket chain to purchase the site and make it look something like this.. awful.

Looking down into one of the vats
There is a couple of cats in these tanks who have long since died having got in and been unable to escape and are now lying mummified on the floor, still with collars round their necks, bit of a grim find!!

The Roof
This is what originally got me interested in this site, i wanted to reach the rooftop when i first set off into the building, everything else was a bonus
