A Small Commercial Estate
This building and another just to the right of the photo house several small companies. They do not look purpose built. My guess would be that they were originally built for the china clay industry. Note the mobile phone mast. This location is high above St Austell on the northern flank of the town.

Pochin House, St Austell
Looking across a gridline up Carclaze Road. See Image To the left is a parallel, more conventional, housing development on Lovering Road, named after Lovering China Clays, one of H D Pochin & Company's competitors; both were taken over by English China Clays in 1932 http://www.fundinguniverse.com/company-histories/English-China-Clays-Ltd-Company-History.html . The Loverings built the clay dry from which Pochin House has been developed http://www.wainhomessouthwest.com/news/historiacl_links.htm .

Pochin House, St Austell
This modern development is based around the former Carclaze Mine on Carclaze Road. "Pochin House still features the original chimney from the Lovering Clay Dry." http://www.wainhomessouthwest.com/news/historiacl_links.htm . The name commemorates Henry Davis Pochin, an industrial chemist who invented both a process of clarifying rosin so that white soap could be produced, and also a cheap alternative to alumstone in the production of paper. The latter process required china clay, of which his company became one of Britain's three largest producers. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Henry_Davis_Pochin

Escape lane and roundabout on A391
Between Carluddon and the A390 junction, there are several roundabouts on the A391, and corresponding escape lanes because of the steep hill.
