The sight of some old fashioned industrial machinery is not so unexpected when the history of this site is revealed. This is part of the former Singers foundry, where plenty of original ironworking went on. Since it has now become a residential estate, an effort has been made to keep at least a few pieces here to mark the contribution it made to the local economy. See Image] for a frontal view, or Image] for more heavy iron.
