@savage: Inside the abandoned Ferodo Factory in Caernarfon, North Wales. 🏭 Once a major employer in Gwynedd, the Ferodo factory was built in 1962 and became famous for manufacturing automotive brake components. At its peak, the site employed up to 1,500 people before eventually closing in 2008. Nearly two decades later, the former industrial site remains derelict, but its future could be about to change. Plans have been proposed to demolish the old Ferodo factory and replace it with a huge data centre development in North Wales, potentially transforming the site into a major technology campus. However, the proposed redevelopment has attracted significant local opposition, with thousands of people raising concerns about the plans. From one of Caernarfon’s biggest industrial employers to a potentially controversial data centre development, this is a huge part of North Wales history. Would you support the redevelopment, or would you rather see the old Ferodo factory preserved? 📍 Location — Ferodo Factory, Caernarfon, Gwynedd, North Wales. #Caernarfon #NorthWales #AbandonedPlaces #UrbanExploration #Wales
