The British Sugar plc factory on the side of The Great North Road (the A616), south of Muskham, is seen here from Newark Marina. Of the 18 factories once owned by the British Sugar Corporation, only four still process beet - Bury St Edmunds (Suffolk) Cantley and Wissington (Norfolk) and Newark-on-Trent. River traffic heading for Newark would pass the marina - behind the photographer - from left to right.
