The next stop north on the big roadtrip was this little spot. It was originally a Fisons Pharmaceutical Research site before being taken over by Sanofi Aventis who own the new very big very live factory next door. All of the adjacent old site has been demolished except the big art deco admin building which is mostly stripped but with one wonderful staircase/glass dome in the middle which makes it worth the visit. Little signs remain of it's former usage and identity other than a few rolls of old Fisons tape and some big metal letters.

After waiting what seemed like an age for a National Grid van sat right in front of the access point to bugger off we were in.
