Seen from the adjacent railway line, part of the 25 acre park (is an industrial parka glorified industrial estate?). In the centre can be seen the end of the fine facade shown in Image, described at http://list.english-heritage.org.uk/resultsingle.aspx?uid=1234517&searchtype=mapsearch in these words: "the style of the building anticipates that of their {ie Wallis, Gilbert and Partners} famous Hoover Building of 1932-5, but in the quality of the detailing to the entrance and board room this is the more carefully wrought." This building dates from 1920-22.
