Many of the roads on this industrial estate are named with a 1960s space programme reference - Gagarin, Apollo, Borman, Armstrong, Lovell and others. The distant figures are a runner and two marshalls in the 2021 Cathedral to Castle 10 mile road race from Lichfield to Tamworth, which finally took place in September 2021 after a couple of years of postponements for the Coronavirus pandemic.
