I didn't know of the demolition until HG posted. Since then, I found a Facebook page about the cheese factory. In the centre, you'll see photos from September, 2014, noting that the factory is about to be demolished. I've also seen other sites with photos of the interior after the building was abandoned. It was in very rough shape (as in "should be condemned due to safety concerns"). Here is the FB page: https://www.facebook.com/media/set/?set=a.737715156266267.1073741834.473231026048016&type=3BrianShttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15956662153006572125noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6132898085410789426.post-35813890968096121052016-02-05T19:56:39.901-05:002016-02-05T19:56:39.901-05:00Thank you.

I thought it was being used for apartments.BrianShttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15956662153006572125noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6132898085410789426.post-74897686662788844242016-02-05T14:09:01.428-05:002016-02-05T14:09:01.428-05:00I'm very sorry to say that the cheese factory ...I'm very sorry to say that the cheese factory has been torn down.hghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05167837705070602255noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6132898085410789426.post-32730087875800114262015-11-11T22:24:10.273-05:002015-11-11T22:24:10.273-05:00Hello.

If you turn left at the intersection, just go down Academy a little bit and you will see a white two-floor building on the right side of the road. That's the old cheese factory. I see the former doors are boarded over. No, I'm not a former inspector. LOL. I've just been to a lot of cheese factories over the years; not too many have survived so I rarely get to one these days, although I did stop at Maple Dale and Ivanhoe in the summer. https://goo.gl/N9746pBrianShttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15956662153006572125noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6132898085410789426.post-87311336949559446082015-11-10T21:39:18.266-05:002015-11-10T21:39:18.266-05:00Hi Brian.

I think if you go to Google Streetview you can see it as it was when the Streetview camera through the village. I'm guessing you are a cheese geek, or an inspector or something? Lots of cheese factories in your past!Ancestral Roofshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16755249835071665091noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6132898085410789426.post-67357776910887140782015-11-10T18:58:15.257-05:002015-11-10T18:58:15.257-05:00This is very interesting, and I see another book t...This is very interesting, and I see another book that I must get. Did you see the former cheese factory? I was in that around 1960. Skim milk powder was also produced there. I think the building is now used as an apartment building, but I'm not sure. It's been many, many years since I've been there, but I always enjoyed being in Newburgh. Thanks for sharing.BrianShttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15956662153006572125noreply@blogger.com
