taken 10 years ago, near to Melton Mowbray, Leicestershire, England

East Gate, Mars factory, Melton Mowbray
East Gate, Mars factory, Melton Mowbray
Once one of the main entrances to the large pet food factory at the corner of Brook Street and Regent Street. This was closed in the 1990s and all traffic now uses the entrance on Saxby Road. The large gantry straight ahead conveys finished product from the mixing, canning and pressure cooking area west of Scalford Brook, (which bisects the site), to the labelling, packing and loading area to east.
SK7519 : 57, Regent Street, Melton Mowbray on the opposite side of the road is reflected in the wide angle road visibility mirror.
