 Goods and coal yard on the Midland Main Line just north of Hendon Station. The yard closed at the start of 1968. Part remains in use as the station carpark, but part was used for the 1970s extension of the M1. |

A cracking shot of the famous factory opened in 1895. It finally closed in 1980. Just one of a number of recently released early images and one that ties in nicely with the Hyde/West Hendon picture previously added by Katy. |

An excellent source of earlier info on these areas is the map site http://maps.nls.uk/geo/explore which gives you an 1880/1913 map laid over a modern aerial view. It covers England and Wales and you can zoom in to the area you want. |
