The Wheel Inn, James Street, Golcar
From this angle the pub looks to be a building sliced in half, but in fact it is just chamfered off a little to follow the line of Park Lane East, behind the van and what must be a champion telephone pole with an enormous number of lines radiating from it.

Ainley Street, Golcar
Taken from Station Road. The sign 'unadopted' below the street name-plate indicates that the council is not responsible for the repair of the road, to forestall complaints.

Terrace houses, Station Road, Golcar
The roof-line of terrace houses is quite often broken by gables without windows, ie as a feature rather than to provide light to the loft space. In this case the spacing of the gables does not relate to the spacing of the windows, whereas in other cases the gables often emphasise the central house of a block.

Albion Mills, Brook Lane, Golcar
Thanks to Humphrey Bolton I now know where my "mystery mill" is and can now post my own view (practically identical to his) taken nearly 24 years earlier.
There was a little scrapyard a few yards away with the remains of some sort of jet aircraft. Humphrey confirms that is all long gone. Let's hope they don't ruin the mill too much (one of my pet hates).
