Call to turn site of former asbestos factory into nature reserve as councillor says it will take ‘a monumental effort’ to make it safe for housing
The site of what was once the world’s largest asbestos factory should be covered with soil and turned into a wildlife sanctuary, according to a leading councillor. Last year ESG Trading Limited bought the old Turner Brothers Asbestos site, in Rochdale, with a view to cleaning it up and selling it on for a ‘mixed use’ scheme - potentially including housing.
"There were diggers that would just dig a hole, drop it in and cap it. And it’s going to take a monumental effort to convince this councillor this is a safe site to build houses on, without question.” “But in the meantime, this council should be moving towards capping it and making it safe. Anything else is just noise.”
