Pyewipe Road Level Crossing, Gilbey Road
The name of the crossing is a bit confusing, as the road is certainly Gilbey Road. A fine surviving example of traditional wooden gates, and an interesting modern(ish) signal box. There does still appear to be a small amount of traffic on the railway.

Pyewipe Waste Water Treatment Works
Anglian Water Pyewipe Waste Water Treatment Works. Picture taken from the adjacent road looking approx. northwest. This is a composite image from two original photos as the plant is very large and even with a 28mm lens I could not get it all in one shot. Taken on a showery April afternoon.

Abandoned carpark
In the two years since Alan Murray-Rust's photograph ( http://www.geograph.org.uk/photo/882803 ) the state of the carpark has deteriorated even further and is now inaccessible and unuseable.

Pyewipe Waste Water Treatment Works
Although this is the normal modern term for what used to be called a sewage works, in this case a large amount of the effluent doubtlessly comes from the various chemical industries.

Path to the foreshore
Although clearly constructed specifically to give access to the sea wall path, this is not apparently designated as a right of way.

Factory, Grimsby (1)
A vast plant with a soaring chimney. Sadly, it closed in 2009, with the loss of more than 200 jobs, a fact which I hadn't realised when I took the photo. It was operated by Huntsman Tioxide for the production of titanium dioxide, used as a whitening pigment in, amongst other things, coatings, plastics, inks, cosmetics and food.
