Driving to Ally Pally a few weeks ago, I was running early and decided to investigate a chimney I could see in the middle of some houses. What I found could be straight out of The Sweeny or The Professionals.
Visual Packing is a small industrial building, parts of which must date from the end of the war. Or at least that's what I guessed looking at it in the early Sunday morning sunshine.
According to the web, the company manufactures polypropylene and cellophane bags and was formed in 1973.
The place was a bit of a mystery until I found the website for Bowes Park and Bounds Green, when all was revealed!
I really like this. There's something about mid 20th century industrial units with the whitewashed brickwork and crittal windows along with the asbestos extras. Hard to get right on a model though.
ReplyDeleteThis was a real find. Full of character and a challenge to model, but inspirational all the same.
