OS benchmark, Park Village former school
An OS cutmark on the front wall of the former school, now the Park Village Youth, Media & Activity Centre (although I have to say, it looked pretty firmly closed the day I passed). Mark originally levelled at 128.571m above Ordnance Datuim Newlyn.

Warehousing on 'Meadows' Site
Henry Meadows Ltd was founded in 1920 to produce three speed gearboxes for cars. They quickly expanded into petrol and later diesel engines for military and commercial vehicles, boats and trains. In the 1950s the site covered an area of 14 acres with a workforce of 1200. The site closed in 1960 and had lain derelict for many years before the factory units were refurbished as warehousing.
A clothing manufacturer now occupies part of the original buildings.

Cannock Road
The old turnpike road on the left was built cutting off a corner which is now preserved in the 20th century housing development. The road sign with a similar one at the other end of 'The Triangle' dates from the Staffordshire County Council period. The sign from pre 1902 is locally listed and was supplied by W H Smith of Whitchurch.
