The concrete raft is where F Steadman (Builders) & Sons used to be. It was demolished quite recently and was one of those buildings I was always going to photograph, but never did. Back in the late 70s it looked very dilapidated and I don't think anything was ever done to improve it. It had a sort of wooden shop front, but the windows were only small and high up and all the paintwork was cracked and peeling. I believe Steadman's are now on Boston Road Industrial Estate.
