Fanny Pool, Birchenwood Country Park

To the left where the modern houses are there used to be the Birchenwood Works which extracted the by-products from coal (gas, benzine, tar etc.)and was a great pollutant of the surrounding district. It shut down in the 1960's and has been turned into a housing development and country park.
