Former site of U G Closures and Plastics (renamed from Kork-n-Seal in 1966/67). The factory started operations around the time of the WW1 and finally closed during the mid 1980's. The site is now redeveloped and is home to a number of smaller retail units including a Kwik-Fit at the junction with Bugsby's Way.
