UR A HOMO

Thanks for this film. My grandfather worked in the Birmingham Battery factory and this building was always a notable landmark. Sad to see it allowed to fall into decay and now demolished.

Thort my ears were ringing at the start lol

OMG that's so scary.

And of it's demolition has come nothing, the land is too contaminated by the old metal works, so now the land is just empty. I enjoyed this place, but not so much to make a film about it.

@savageman26 The problem was that Sainsbury's own the site including all the retail park and when they bought it they had to keep the admin building because it was a listed building. They said they we're going to incorporate it into their new shop or something but they just left it rot so that it was so unsafe they had to tear it down. It was a very sneaky tactic. I suppose the fascination came from seeing this lovely old building amongst modernistic metal structures.

I dont suppose u have any more fotage from the building, as i would love to see any uneditied versions. My parents would be most gratefull

[MrTammytiger]

Thanxs for the memories, a few tears shed.

[livingprooffilms]

I think its so stupid that Sainsbury's left it go like that so thy could Knock it down to build a new super market.

[MrTammytiger]

Thanxs for the video, myself and my family were the last to live there around 1997. It certainly didnt look like that when we left

[livingprooffilms]

It was a lovely old building and too bad it's been completely demolished now.

[wedealindreams]

This is fantastic.

I really enjoyed this, Had aspects of Werner Herzogs style of cinematography I thought?

[livingprooffilms]
