It was a very atmospheric area. I took about twenty photos, but wish I'd done more (pre-digital, so I used only what I had left on the film). The road leading down to the site is called Heritage Way - now completely devoid of any heritage whatsoever. Shortly after photographing this I located the old Gretton Brook locomotive shed, complete with roller doors and inspection pits, having been recently vacated by a tyre remoulding company. I went back to photograph and measure it a couple of weeks later and it too had gone. I very much regret not getting there in time.
