<p>I'm thinking of creating a tag for historic creameries. I don't
know anything about modern ones, they could possibly included, but
the situation in Ireland in the past was that farmers brought
their milk to the local ceamery, it was skimmed and the cream made
into butter or cheese and the farmers took the rest back home to
feed to pigs or something. I don't know all the technicalities,
but those buildings were purpose built, often still recognizable
by their architecture, mostly vacant now, but some are converted
into cafés, warehouses or other commercial uses apparently. </p></div></blockquote><div><div>In Australia, they were often called a "Butter Factory", &
there are still a number of them still named & standing, but sadly,
no longer operating.</div></div><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0px 0px 0px 0.8ex;border-left:1px solid rgb(204,204,204);padding-left:1ex"><div><p>I'd favour <font face="Courier New, Courier, monospace">building=industrial</font>
