Land acquired
The former H. Cooper and Sons site in Yate has been levelled and now waits to be turned into a residential area. A benchmark lurks on the short wall at the foot of the shot - see Image
Prior to that the area was Hollybrook Brick works in the early twentieth century; the works closed in WWII due to contraction of demand. The large ponds behind it are a clue as to the extraction that took place. Before that it was in fact a prisoner of war camp, holding many Germans taken in the Great War - indeed, the Common is still referred locally as Germans Field.
