Nope, no new houses on the site. The site is still a sewage works, though new housing developments have led to it being greatly expanded in recent years.

Both good guesses but:


Sewage Treatment Plant - yes.
Crossness - no - further east.
Accessable to the public - no.
Can you see it from somewhere that is - yes - national cycle route runs right past it and you can probably see this from the said route.

Not Motney Hill Keith. This particular piece of equipment is obsolete and disused now, but the place it was part of serves the same purpose though.

Anyone else noticed the lad on the roof leaning against the chimney ?  Top left.


Not until you mentioned it.  Reminds me of the old cartoon in the newspapers where you had to find the hidden element.

Stuartwaters you are exactly right


I actually remember having to use the old Wood Street route travelling on buses in the mid 50's


The new '60's route a great improvement
