RichardB Posted August 30, 2008 Share Posted August 30, 2008 I can't place it. I've been to Edinburgh Zoo today with a car-full, wife, kidlette, her boyfriend, I'm shattered. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hjdary Posted August 30, 2008 Share Posted August 30, 2008 Go along Penistone Road toward the City, past Morrison at the Barracks and its the huge white building on the left in between Neepsend bridge (Where the Farfield Pub is) and Rutland Rd.....near the speed camera. Looks a bit art deco style....very nice a building and it will be a crying shame if they pull it down. Given the current trend in the City it could be turned into some flats but as our tax system favours rebuilding over refurbishing I fear we will loose many more gems like this over the years to come.

mickjj Posted September 1, 2008 Share Posted September 1, 2008 If it is mushett tools I will be quite sad. I had my very first job there upon leaving school. At least it won't get knocked down this week so I will at least get to see it again while on my visit home, unlike the cooling towers. I know they are all just bricks and mortar but buildings hold so many memories for so many people and it riles me that so many are dissappearing. BTW thanks for the heads up on this one Tsavo.

boginspro Posted December 10, 2023 Share Posted December 10, 2023 I may be wrong but I think this is Osborne Mushet's featured in this Pathe film. I sometimes waited outside for my girl friend who was a typist there. I realize the date is wrong. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks Boginspro, hope it provides someone with that rare opportunity to spot a relative on the film. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
