This historic locomotive shed, redundant but now modernised, shows what can be achieved with some thought rather than a bulldozer. It is shown on the 1882 Ordnance Survey map within a complex of railway sidings and other buildings, but it seems to be the only survivor from those times. It stands alongside Boundary Lane, which is more or less the boundary between England (where the building is) and Wales where the camera is. Boundary Lane meets the A5104 just to the left of the camera.
