Covid-19 sign, Old Mill Road, Sandbach
This message would have meant nothing before late 2021, but the Omicron variant of the Covid-19 virus was spreading rapidly through England by December. The solar-powered sign encouraged people to get a third dose of vaccine (colloquially a 'booster jab').
The road is named after a former silk mill at its southern end, no trace of which now remains.

Der Alte Schlachthof, Flat Lane, Sandbach
The German name of this modern property means 'The old slaughterhouse'. My sister recalls the abattoir still operating in the early 1980s, but Stewart Green's online history site records its demolition in June 1987.

Sewer across the Dingle Brook
Shown just as 'pipeline' on large scale maps, this is undoubtedly a sewer, as there used to be a sewage works just south of this location, marked on the 1930s map but already shown as disused by the 1960s. The pipe now runs through the embankment of the A534 Wheelock Bypass, presumably to a pumping station somewhere the other side.
