The New Perseverance Iron Works, Tavistock
This is the HQ of the Robey Trust and houses a variety of products of the Lincoln firm of Robey. These are mainly stationary and road steam engines.
This was an early recipient of lottery funding and is a most impressive site.
The picture was against the light and there was also a bonfire adding to the general "fug".
