The old ( Ex laundry) part of the Bristol Avenue site is being knocked down to make a carpark for the ice rink in the new part of the site.

I've lived not far from there for over 20 years, it's sad to see it go.

Looks like there's something resembling an outrigger on the floor.

Sad times for British Industry. I used to work in Rugby where the big GEC, Alstom (OK French owned)factories use to churn out brilliant bits of electrical power engineering. Now it's reduced to one small unit, a big retail park, houses and a tech college.

Oh yes, but they've built a new pub and called it the turbine.
