A moody shot of the other end of the Heavy foundry. Normally this was a noisy and busy place, but everything was eerily quiet during the annual summer shutdown c1980s.

My dad Arthur Pryke worked as a fettler in the heavy foundry through 70’s, 80’s until they closed down.
Very atmospheric Kevin, it makes me remember the smell the moulding sand!
