Therein lies the problem.Some want to preserve it,some don't so it sits there rotting away.




Well, I see it is Listed so the local authority have a responsibility as well as the current owners to look after it. The LA should have a Buildings at Risk register and I would have thought this should be on it.. it's then the owners responsibility to take care of it!!
But Local authorities seldom do anything about it as going to court takes too much time and costs too much!

To see other Listed Buildings in and around town go on Images of England.com and have a butchers!

I'm boring myself now so best go!

The problem is that the Ice Factory has been allowed to crumble for so long that any expenditure on it would effectively be a complete waste of cash. If the council did pursue putting it on a buildings at risk register the owners could use that defence to successfully argue against it.

I love local history and have photographed the docks many times but I think the ice factory should be levelled and replaced with new facilities for present-day businesses because we need to do something to reduce local unemployment.


Mr McGee, don't make me angry. You wouldn't like me when I'm angry.

I've had a search of that site - not much more about GY...but you can bet people will be snooping around Tioxide once everyone's off site. All highly illegal of course etc etc.

There's plenty of stuff from Hull - here's a few good'uns:

It will therefore belong to ABP. The Great Grimsby Ice co. would only have a lease on it. If the agreement is similar to the other buildings on Fish Dock rd it will be leased out by the Great Central Rly Co. and then the LNER and subsequently ABP.But the original will be the GCR.  Icenian senior reckons the machinery inside was imported from Norway.
