James Bridge gasholders from A4038 - Walsall, West Midlands
A slightly more distant view of the gasholders in 'Sometime to disappear?' from the A4038 Darlaston Road. Demolition of these landmarks is apparently still planned but when is not clear, neither is the future use of the site. In November 1940 during an air raid a bomb dropped on this site but failed to explode. The site superintendent at the time, Richard Hateley, was awarded the George Medal for preventing one of the tanks from exploding on that night (source heritagewebsite).
Time taken 3.16 pm GMT (Greenwich Mean Time).

The Chestnut Tree (1), Axletree Way, Wednesbury
This food focussed public house and restaurant opened in 2012. A Marston's house, it is one of about twenty four they opened in that year. With so many pubs closing, it is good to hear that some new ones are opening. This one is very much aimed at shoppers visiting the nearby Ikea store and the Gallagher Retail Park.
