These photos were taken by me at the Taylor bellfoundry in September 2019. P.S. Dear viewers, this is probably the last post I will put up for roughly the next couple of months as now there are some other things that I need to concentrate on. Hopefully I will return by late June or early July with more great photos of Loughborough and other places. Until then, goodbye for now!

The only thing that's wrong with this is that there's no pedestrian access into the yard at the end of the road. It is seen here from the Station Street end in February 2022. The western section of Byron Street in February 2022. I honestly think that this is the worst-paved section of road in Loughborough - look at all the potholes! Sorry, Byron Street.
