The park was once the Standard Telephones and Cables factory, in which one of my neighbours used to work. With the move away from electro-mechanical telecommunications equipment and loss of business following the privatisation of British Telecom, STC lost its way and was taken over by Nortel. A sad end to an innovative company that pioneered the use of optical fibre for telecommunications. The factory here had been rundown and closed by the end of the 1980's.
