The former Bengers pharmaceutical works (Fisons from 1947, Rhone-Poulenc from 1995) was a major employer in the area. Production ceased in 2005 and the works were demolished over the last few years. Unfortunately we seem not to have any photos of the buildings on this site except for a glimpse of the office block Image taken in 2013.
