⚠️ Hazardous pay. Emergency response centre and medical wing of an abandoned bromine works in North Wales

Bromine is a hazardous chemical. To manage these risks, the site has an emergency response centre stocked with safety equipment.

Nearby is an on-site medic office

In the 1990s, the plant experienced a significant incident where the release of toxic bromine gas injured workers and forced local residents to stay indoors.

Naa there isn't anything left that can cause much concern here, plus all the windows are broken so it's very well ventilated. I didn't go below ground or into confided spaces either 💙
