View is roughly from the North-West. There has been significant change in this photo, with the M6 running parallel to the Tame Valley Canal on the camera side, a large electricity switching centre/sub station, and housing development. The factory, it seems, is no more. |

My Dad, Eric Holmes, worked as an electrician here up to about September 1971 when we emigrated to Australia. Wondering if anyone knew him and had any stories to share? I do know that the man who replaced him died in an accident there about a year later. |
