This was formerly the site of the ceramic works of Charles and Moses Adams who made sanitary ware under the trade mark, Adamsez, still be seen in public and private conveniences round the world, from 1902. Unable to compete with plastic fittings, the factory closed in 1975 http://www.twsitelines.info/Siteline.nsf/8f71f680ce308c9a802573a80061c133/0b8a8e4f78447e72802576af003e6703
On both these photos you can just see the owl that sits on top of the highest point of the cement silo to scare the seagulls and pigeons. It leans slightly to one side and seems to move as you pass by on bicycle or car. A zoom photo showed the hook on top to prove a fake (that and the fact that it hadn't moved for 10 years!)
