King's Bromley Wharf in Staffordshire
This is the Trent and Mersey Canal, looking north-west towards Rugeley and Great Haywood Junction from near Lichfield Road Bridge, No 54.

A creamery was built alongside the Trent and Mersey Canal at Bromley Hayes by the Trent Valley Dairy and Produce Co Ltd in 1885, but was short lived, becoming bankrupt and closing in 1892. By 1896 the site was being operated by Edwards Creameries, and was later bought by United Dairies. It operated until the 1930s. LinkExternal link

The buildings are now used by various small businesses.

Note: Kings Bromley is commonly spelt without its apostrophe.
