Boiler works of Israel Newton & Sons Ltd. An old established company that now does mainly small locomotive and road steam boilers for the preservation scene. Inside was an amazing time capsule doing work of a high standard. The company has now been acquired by two brothers and now works out of premises in Chapel en le Frith. I understand the site was to be sold for redevelopment.
