    Default Corrugated iron

    Let's see your photos of industrial and agricultural uses of corrugated iron. The rustier the iron and the worse condition the building's in the better!

    Here's a shed (and cats) at College Fields farm, near Buerton, Cheshire

    The first two are off Market Street, Craven Arms









    and this is also in Craven Arms, on Corvedale Road. Its last use was as a railway social club but has been empty for a long time because the owner couldn't be traced. The council now has possession of it so expect it to be knocked down
