I had my usual '3 hopefuls' plan lined up but sadly they were all no-go's!
But luck was on my side; across the road I spotted something that could be of interest, and came across some young lads who had just explored it. So it was game on!
William Henry Veno was a businessman dealing in pharmaceuticals, the building became his base after making a decent living in the U.S. and it was titled the Veno Drug company in 1898. The building was called Progress house and the business was sold to Beechams in 1925.
The building was also part of the Trafford Press, it closed in 2004 and became apartments, after a few sales and ideas the place has remained empty but for the odd squatter. Sadly the printer part had severe damage after a fire so access was really not worth it
It's in a pretty sad state but I'm happy with what I captured.
Enjoy!
