This is almost the same view as in Chris Allen's image of 1995. Image The long grey shed of ASDA is where the red-brick mill was to the right of the church; the next mill to the right has gone. In the foreground the little mill with the tall chimney has gone, but the smaller chimney and the buildings around it are still there. Of course the various trees have grown bigger. The point of view is railway bridge MDL1/12, and I am submitting a separate image of it.
