Gowing and Pursey's Acton waste transfer and materials recycling station on Horn Lane. Trucks invariably bring in lots of mud and dust with them and a man is stationed on the entrance with a hose in an attempt to keep it under control. There is also a road sweeper that goes out on patrol at regular intervals - you can see its orange rear end to the left of the truck in the centre.
