With the old bicycle factory (now a business estate) and the hills beyond. You can't see the river from here but it runs between the red brick terraces and the depot. I believe the construction of a long-promised footbridge has begun. Indicated by the stepped earth left of centre by the orange crane(?) in front of the depot, and the white curved object, centre right. The road just visible left of the crane runs up past the cemetery, and Pound Stretchers, coming out on Pool Road, opposite Morrisons supermarket.
