The abandoned factory in via Petronio in Riva Trigoso.
Every time I go to Riva Trigoso passing through via Petronio I see this abandoned factory and I always wonder what it was.
Surely some reader will be able to reveal to me what was produced in this small factory, I don't know nor can I find any information.

Update: I have already received many answers (on Facebook and in the comments) about what this factory was: it was the Fratelli Rossi foundry that produced cast iron objects, including many of the manhole covers used in Sestri Levante, which then fell into disuse.

The abandoned factory in the hamlet of Ponterotto in Sestri.
A few hundred meters upstream from Santa Vittoria di Libiola there is this small group of houses, on the other side of Gromolo. The access road to these houses is a stone and brick bridge. I tried to figure out the name of the place, if it has one, and I think it is called Ponterotto.

A little further on there is one of the monuments to the golden age of the Gromolo valley, when the extraction of minerals, mainly copper, had led Libiola (this is the name of the hamlet where we find ourselves) to extract and transform minerals.

Now abandoned, along the road, there is also the abandoned factory symbol of that period:

I remember some news some time ago about the idea of doing something with this unsafe building but now I can find no trace of it.
