This factory was built in the mid 60s for Vitality Bulbs, a manufacturer of specialist miniature light bulbs. Since then they have become VCH and now CML, with LEDs on the product list. The simple style of the building disguises its size. The A14 road runs just behind those trees - that was not there when the factory was built, nor were the surrounding industrial estates.
