This was posted today on the Holmfirth History Facebook group. Several years ago, a member of this forum, might have been Barmpot, posted a photo of the derelict building. It was for sale at the time. The last time I passed it, two years ago, the roof and walls were gone, leaving only the floor and the fryer along the short wall where the smokestack is located in this old photo. I can't find the original photo on this forum or the one I posted two years ago, hence the new thread.
Apparently someone purchased it. The conversation generated by the photo includes a plan by the current owner to restore it using old photos and operate it as a chippy.
