This was one of the first industrial sites I ever visited, and I was amazed by how big it was. While exploring, we encountered other groups of kids and people abseiling around the industrial ruins. The site was massive, with lots of machines left behind. It's a shame the site got demolished, though!
The site had been selling mineral-rich clay known as Fillerwatch and also sold a range of wood products, all the way up to the oil industry. It was also used for cat litter. Until 1997, the Redhill site was one of three sites in the UK where this valuable substance could be quarried.
The site was demolished at the start of 2019
