This was the only part of the site still being used for its original purpose when I visited! The last stages of demolition were just being completed, prior to the site being redeveloped as housing. Once upon a time, the Dairy Crest plant was a landmark for miles around: having worked here, and commuted by bicycle from Wolverhampton, 23 miles away, I was more familiar with the view of the place from across the fields than most, and it came as a bit of a shock to drive towards the site and not be able to see it. In the background was once the canteen and office block and the "Special Products" division, where things like brandy butter were made at Christmas time.
