Once the park of a local haulier, this site on Long Lane was abandoned some years ago. The brick wall on the right was added, dividing the site and allowing continued access to buildings behind the adjacent houses. The site has two disused fuel pumps and a diesel storage tank. It has recently been sold with planning permission for 7 flats. I do hope they're going to decontaminate first!
