The platforms sit where the hammer pit was.
A file works, full of iron.
We train in a Victorian file-cutters' workshop on Neepsend Lane. The tilt hammer it was named after went for scrap long ago. Chalk is in every bucket, you can drop your deadlifts on the platforms, and there is always a coach on the floor while we are open.

Graham, Walkley
Coached by a PE teacher and a steelworker.
Ruth Ashworth taught PE for nineteen years and picked up a barbell at 38. Tomasz Wilk, our head coach, spent fifteen years on the night shift at a steel mill in the Don Valley before he coached anyone. Aisha and Callum cover the evenings and weekends.
