Clones roundhouse

Clones roundhouse
At the back of the former Great Northern Railway of Ireland twelve road locomotive shed at Clones in County Monaghan. Built in 1925 it closed with then railway in 1959 and the premises were subsequently modified and used by a company that constructed tank containers. Around 2003 this business got into financial difficulties and the works has since been used for steel fabrication although that appears to have come to an end in the loco shed building.

At the back of the roundhouse the steel fabrication work was extended into this corrugated lean-to structure. The pipework is for extraction from the bays that were used for paint spraying and shotblasting.
