Chez Norbert
Image: © Des Blenkinsopp Taken: 25 Nov 2011
Late afternoon sun lends a rosy tint to Norbert Dentressangle's building on the fringe of Heathrow airport. Considered by those who care about such matters to be France's answer to Eddie Stobart (although personally I think James Irlam is also in the running) ND was actually started in London in 1979. The company is now based in Saint Vallier, Drome, France and Norbert himself is still chairman. Taken from the London Loop long distance path, which passes the door.
