Waste Ground outside Riley's Spring Works
I celebrated my 21st birthday by taking this photograph of waste ground outside the spring works. In those days. nobody bothered about air pollution. Engines would stand on the sidings for hours emitting smoke and steam, while additional smoke was caused by Riley's workmen setting fire to waste rubber outside the works.

This is the view to the south-west from Deeplish Corner. This view has not changed in any material aspect for the last 60 years, with the exception that the road was the sett-paved - and the introduction of speed bumps is quite recent.
