This used to be the Image and was the processing point for the ironstone and hub of the extensive quarry railway network. The quarries closed in September 1967 however the buildings on this site continued to be used for a variety of purposes. As can be seen from the picture, the site is currently being extensively redeveloped as a business park. See http://www.apolloofficepark.co.uk/history.htm
