Facing onto Long Road, the gatehouse remains standing, though in derelict condition. The faded sign on the roof can just be made out, and reads: 'Bookham Technology'. All that remains of the buildings that used to occupy the site are piles of rubble, which have been left largely untouched since demolition, over two years ago. More information: Image
