It is sad to see them go but as you can see from the entry picture, they have had their day. Wonder where all that stone on the ground will end up? It looks like York stone, not your typical "Corpy" flag stone.

I was down there today! Not many left now. I went there to have a chat with the site manager... I was looking to salvage/reclaim a pallet of Bricks. My house in Aintree was built roughly the same time and uses the same glazed bricks... I have a lot of frost damage to the rear of my house and figured that if I got the same type of bricks from there, its something saved from the klondyke area...

My old chippy :( that kept me alive when I was single :lol:

Is this Elizabeth Road?
If so that first one on the right (you can see the cream window sill), is my old house :(
