Autumn In Spango Valley
Autumn In Spango Valley
The large building (most of it is obscured) was built by IBM in the early 1980s to store components for use in their now closed computer factory here. Almost completely automated; only a handful of people worked in this massive building. The steep slope of Cauldron Hill in the background forms the southern side of Spango Valley.

The building was demolished in 2010 and virtually no trace remains today (2011) NS2274 : Spango Valley.
