Taken from the east we are looking up Hay Lane and in the lower part of the picture the line of trees at the back of Hyde Cottage marks the approximate line that Colin Park Road was built along a couple of years later. Also where the Davies Tyre works was eventually built is on the right hand edge of the image. |

A friend has just reminded me that although Desoutter Bros became famous for power tools Marcel Desoutter started the company to manufacture artificial legs after losing a leg in a flying accident. His brother Charles set about designing him a modern, light weight prosthetic and so the company was born, with pneumatic drills as a money making sideline. |
