This is the narrower northeastern end of the triangular site, which covered some 45 hectares including car parks. Some idea of scale is given by the lighting columns on the A45 and the standard security fence, some 300 metres distant. OS is still showing the site as it was. Try www.bing.com/maps and search on 'Ryton on Dunsmore' for aerial views of the plant.
