    I worked here from 1995 - 2003 and was a maintenance fitter in the solvent recovery department, which was situated over the bridge that you walked across in your video. The bridge was in fact made by my co-worker Vic Szabor. The last laboratory you went into was for the solvent recovery department and was a prefab building. Like the shot of the vertical boilers in the main factory which I think were in a department called basic make. Always remember the grounds being absolutely pristine, tetrosyl employed their own gardeneners and were situated in a large greenhouse around the back of the warehouses.

    My mother was born in Bevis Green cottages in 1929. My Great grandad, Grandad and uncles worked in the mill back then - a cotton dying and printing mill owned by Simpson and Godlee. The two men were Quakers and Francis Godlee funded the Godlee building and the Godlee observatory at UMIST . He probably also gave Manchester Astronomical society the extremely rare celestial almanac by John Bevis 1786. Perhaps this is where he got the inspiration for the name Bevis Green. The factory named one of its range of cotton curtain fabrics "Bevis" too. Moving on to the factory's next use by Tetrosyl. My father-in-law was works manager there. And both my husband and I worked there over the summer when we were students. Strange how a mill can be so interwoven with a family over generations.

It’s was a huge site and many buildings the best where the older rock face building bricks that had so much details in them of day’s gone bye and remembering the men Who built them it was also good to see some of the machinery still left some heavy duty stuff and technology equipment within this complex and high risk throughout the factory 👍

    I used to go there as a lorry driver to collect paint. It would have been in the early 2000's it was always chaos and driver's would have to wait hours to get loaded and if I remember rightly you had to wear safety glasses everywhere on site which was a total bummer as safety glasses were called "safety goggles" back then and they were too, with elastic to hold them on. They soon got better but PPE was only just coming in to the point that they could make drivers from outside firms wear it and people used to say an this won't stick, give it 6 months and they'll have forgotten all about it 😂 how wrong we were!

They shut it down and Bulldozed it to the Ground. The Newer paper machine in your video is more like the ones we had, very similar but ours was probably newer Paper Machine Winders and equipment ......Sad to see, brings back memories...Thank You
