Chimney at Auto Factors Ltd, Loughborough
It would appear that this was the Price Shepshed Factory and used for clothing and fabrics manufacture. It is a large single storey north light shed and as such would be typical of a textile factory.

Moor Lane Bridge, Grand Union Canal
The brilliant spring sunshine gives a shimmering reflection of the bridge in the water. Between Leicester and the River Trent the Grand Union Canal interweaves with the River Soar and is really a river navigation, but the stretch through Loughborough is a canal, the river passing to the north east of the town.
