This is facing North. The Bentley works (formerly Rolls Royce) at Pym's Lane now occupies most of the area bounded by the north/south line of trees (still there) at the bridge on the western tip of the works (still there) and Pym's Lane running East/West along the top of the photo. My first home in Crewe was on the western edge of that bare field opposite the park gates at the end of that double avenue of trees (cut down and replaced about 2006). Immediately to the West is the Webb Orphanage (building still there and currently empty). |
