Pool west of Greencroft Parkway
The pool lies at the centre of the Greencroft Industrial Park near to Annfield Plain in County Durham. The pool is used presumably for fishing; the boarding in the foreground is surely a fisherman's stance and OS maps show a fish symbol beside the water.

Greencroft Industrial Estate
Viewed from Tower Road, on the south side. The ball bearing factory of Ransome and Marles originally occupied this site. They built a large factory here in 1954 which employed 2000 people in its heyday, but closed in 1982. I think this was the site of the main entrance, hence the layby beside the road.
