Lilleshall Co's Brick & Tile factory, Snedshill, Oakengates
The Tile & Brick factory building belonging to the mighty Lilleshall Co. Ltd. Once one of the Midland's largest engineering companies with interests in mining, iron & steel production and hundreds of associated activities.
Now all gone, the building is seen here in 1995 being used by many small industrial ventures.
Note the ornate chimneys, local landmarks for many years.
