Look at the workmen at the far gate not a hard hat or high viz jacket to be seen
The buildings on the left have all been cleared for re-development the ones on the right are exactly the same except they have been vandalised by the spray painters the usual mindless rubbish if they had any painting skill they could have recorded the industrial history of the area there was a lot mainly textile related, the canal was very important
