The large building on the left is the Albion woollen mill, now demolished and with open fields in its place. By contrast, the open land in the foreground, together with the area of tipping, has been transformed into a new housing estate. This view https://www.geograph.org.uk/photo/1067128 was taken from roughly where the trolleybus is passing, looking towards the camera. This is one of a series of views featuring buses in the 60s, 70s, and 80s. http://www.geograph.org.uk/search.php?i=137652761
