Until the 1970s the view here would have been of the former Lancashire & Yorkshire Railway's carriage works, by then in use for a decade as a plant for building concrete construction components for railway use. The works, its associated sidings and most traces of heavy industry are now history, replaced by business parks such as Central Park, visible in the distance, or wasteland.
