Its not Platts Lodge, the lodge was owned originally by Howards & Bulloughs. There use to be an access point behind the drawing offices (now used by britclifes mob), for the Fire Brigade use, Bulloughs own sprinkler system was fed by pumps from that lodge.
And those red pillars supported the railway line, that went up bash brew to Manchester.
