Studios on the corner of Baron Street and Kenion Street Image According to Cargo Studios' website http://www.cargostudios.co.uk/history/ the studio was founded by John Brierley in 1978. Until it closed in 1984 it was the main indie studio in the UK. The building became derelict but in 2012 it was taken over by the guys at Voltalab who have invested a substantial amount to turn it back into a studio. Cargo Studios is still operational but today it is purely a digital mixing studio with just a couple of mics for overdubbing. A blue plaque Image commemorating the building's history was unveiled in 2009.
