This large industrial complex that is now in multiple occupancy dates back to the Worcester Engine Works of 1864. It later became the West Central Wagon Works and was then Heenan & Froude, famous for dynamometers amongst other things. The British Caprotti gear was also made here. It is now in multiple occupancy. This is one of the less prepossessing viewpoints but it is important to include it because one day it will disappear.
