[wzslider height=”800″ info=”true” lightbox=”true”]Best I can determine is that this aging and abandoned building was once an active rock crushing facility. It sit’s on the grounds of O & G Industries so I’m going to take a leap and say that it was probably operated by O & G when their company originated. Like a lot of abandoned buildings it has a lot of character.
It was ifflands cement plant
No that’s what’s left of the stone crusher. The cement plant is up the road in the store yard.
No, it was Iffland’s crusher plant. The cement plant is in the yard south of the store.What you see way to the left at the bottom of the covered conveyor was the primary crusher. Crushed stone went up the conveyor to a secondary crusher then in to the now burned down shaker screens which were above the stone bins.
Thanks for the info!
About 15 years ago when getting loaded with sand at ifflands yard I got talking with the older gentleman running the loader about that plant. I had always wondered how old it was and he told me it was originally scheduled to be test run for the first time on the day of the flood of 1955 but It was postponed naturally. It ran up until the late 80s if not early 90s I remember getting stone there with my father in his 52 international dump truck
Appreciate the information. Thanks for the comment Mark!
