Oldfield Lane North, UB6 0GF

On a restricted site, with a rooftop lorry park.

I immediately thought of Dinky Supertoys. Meccano Ltd. always liked to model bright colours on their chosen vehicle type. There was a mouth-watering aroma about the place.

In use until July 2013, Hovis' Greenford bakery and distribution closed with the loss of 200 jobs. The site is currently abandoned with the exception of a security guard.

This is a British Bakeries bread factory. It is just south of the Grand Union Canal.

The Paddington Arm of the then Grand Junction Canal was opened in 1801 from Bull's Bridge near Southall to Paddington Basin. The canals were initially a success, particularly for transporting coal, building materials and other bulky loads, but the rise of the railways not long after the canals were built substantially reduced their importance. Now they are primarily a leisure facility. The Paddington Arm was one of the last to see the old-fashioned style of regular commercial traffic of paired narrow boats carrying the traditional materials such as coal, oils, and tar. The Paddington Arm now sees regular commercial traffic, usually in the form of aggregates. The towpath is followed by the Grand Union Canal Walk. This section is between Oldfield Lane North and Greenford Road at Greenford.
