Helipebs electricity substation, Gloucester
The Western Power Distribution electricity substation is on the corner of Charles Street and Widden Street. Its identifier is HELIPEBS S/S 5047. The unusual name is mostly likely a reference to the Gloucester business now located in Sisson Road in the city. Helipebs began in 1834 as Kell, Meats and Co producing agricultural implements and machines. Helipebs is currently one of the world's leading manufacturers of fluid power technology.
A Caution notice shows the presence of SF6 (sulphur hexafluoride, an insulating gas used in high voltage systems).

Former All Saints Church, Gloucester
Built 1875 by Sir George Gilbert Scott, in what the Listing describes as 'Middle Pointed style'. Listed Grade II. It became the Anglo-Asian Cultural Centre, a Chinese-based organisation – in 2000.
One feature missing from this view is the former Midland Railway main line between Bristol and Birmingham which crossed Barton Street by a level crossing with an unusual signal box on a gantry above the tracks, visible in this view http://www.disused-stations.org.uk/g/gloucester_eastgate/index23.shtml . The section of the line through the City was closed in 1975 because of the disruption caused by this and 4 other level crossings, with all trains being re-routed to use the present Gloucester station.
