Inside abandoned slaughterhouse that plagued community with horrific stench
These chilling images of an abandoned slaughterhouse show remain after it was shut following fines for breaching food regulations.
The images show multiple machines for slaughtering chickens, a canteen area crumbling down and a haunting key box with labels such as 'vets room' and 'cat pump'.
The images were taken on a Samsung Galaxy s21 Ultra and GoPro 11 by Daniel Sims known online as Bearded Reality.
The slaughterhouse in Bradford was owned by the Iqbal Brothers and was forced to close in 2011 after breaching food regulation standards.
They were fined £40,000, which was reduced on appeal to £25,000.

The slaughterhouse has been abandoned ever since.

"This is the Iqbal Brothers Poultry Farm. The company was fined £40,000 back in 2011 for repeatedly breaching food regulations.
"This was cut to £25,000 after winning an appeal at Bradford Crown Court.

"The whole site was wide open and left so when we went there were a few holes in the fences then we walked in through the open doors.
"At the start, we were quite nervous and couldn't believe that such a massive site had been left, however, that quickly disappeared and became very exciting with all that was left as we made our way through the site.
"The outside had loads of very expensive machinery and vehicles just left and inside in most areas, it was almost very clinical and not what we were expecting at all.
"The site itself was pretty creepy as it was at night when we went but to be honest it was so quiet it became quite relaxing looking around and exploring.
"Seeing all the hooks and machinery left behind was crazy and definitely a highlight."
