Shaft

Shaft

An old elevator shaft. The staircase wrapped around these, and many of the slate pieces making up the steps have fallen through the metalwork.

Often the lift cars are taken as low as possible, propped from below, & the cable cut releasing the emergancy brakes.

Some lifts at abandoned Underground stations have had this done to them to deactivate them.

Almost all buildings have stairwells in case there is a fire and the elevator is out.
