When I heard that the campbells soup factory was to be demolished I thought I simply need to get some pictures first.

I spoke first to the secuirty guard to see if any access was possible and unfortunately as demolition begun a few days ago, for health and safety reasons this wasnt possible.

In the end I settled for a few pictures of the car by night in the carpark outside with the bright red campbells tower in the background. Ironically too I found an old picture of my first Volvo 850 T-5 too in a similar stance.

Its a page in history erased I think seeing such a huge landmark dissapear. Not related to photography I know but interesting as it may be below is a little history.

Here are a few articles relating to the buildings history, briefly it was opened in the 1950's and was Campbells first and only major factory to exist in the UK.

Some photo's of the Dis-used buildings.

That really is a shame, I'd like to go round taking some photos of the factory including the interior. Get some really moody shots going on... shame.

Nice pic, it's a been a landmark that I have looked out for, for many years. I know I'm only 45mins from home when I see it, think it will be missed.

It is the last landmark on my daily commute to work, I know when I see the tower I've passed the point of no return!
