Foundry Lane
The Welsh Sausage Company on the right stands on the site of the Mill Lane Foundry. Lledan Brook curves round in a stone-lined channel which can be seen between the grass and the building. Other buildings in this road are residential housing.

Footbridge over Lledan Brook
A brick footbridge crosses the brook (but goes nowhere) next to Foundry Lane (out of shot left). Looking at 19th century maps I think the lane used to run down the right-hand side of the brook here so the footbridge gave access to buildings associated with the old Mill Lane Foundry.

Beside Lledan Brook
According to the 19th century maps (on http://www.old-maps.co.uk/maps.html?txtXCoord=323000&txtYCoord=307500 ) Foundry Lane used to run down this side of the brook, or perhaps this was the entrance roadway. It looks as if someone has been trying to clear the area recently but they haven't made much head-way. The cat seemed pleased to see me.

Weir on Lledan Brook
The brook takes a strange course through the town. It emerges from under the livestock market about 175m upstream from here. Just below this weir it turns through about 100 degrees, runs SE for about 40m (under this footbridge http://www.geograph.org.uk/photo/2192788 ) then curves round and under the site of the Mill Lane foundry (now the Welsh Sausage Factory).

Welshpool by-pass with noise screens
On the left, with the low fence, there is an industrial estate. Opposite, with a more substantial fence, more noise is screened for the benefit of those living in this part of Welshpool
