The site of 2.37 acres was previously utilised as a gas holder facility which has since had the storage silo decommissioned and removed. The concrete foundation on which the silo was located is still present and could be utilised for a variety of uses and extended for a larger site coverage. There is a double gated access from Jackson Street onto the site which comprises a rough surfaced overgrown vehicle track that extends from Jackson Street through to where the gasholder structure used to be. There is a raised bund embankment extending along the southern side of the access track which contains a gas pipeline and there are markers along its length showing the line of the pipeline. A 30% proportion (0.72 acres) of the site south of the bund comprises a steep gradient slope which leads down to Hardshaw Brook. This area is also overgrown with vegetation.
