I like Preston Bus Station, but it was an important part of my childhood. The Mersey Ferry Terminal makes me feel a bit sick.

Where I live is still quite unspoiled, albeit quite a bland, privileged, mono-cultural stronghold of little-Englanders

Tata Chemical Works, Lostock Gralam, Northwich: with an approaching lorry to provide a sense of scale. I know that some industrial landscapes can be actually quite artful - I struggle to find any redeeming features here (well, apart from the provision of jobs to the local area - but we're not judging the benefit are we, just the appearance) |

I was saving Cumbernauld until I had a few suitable pictures, but since Duchess mentioned it ... here is the Google view of what is literally the heart of Cumbernauld town centre. goo.gl The bridge is recentish, and I quite liked it (not least because spoons is just the other side), but Google pics from the middle of a car park indicate is in now wrapped in a large glass (needless to say, hideous) box. One thing Cumbernauld does not lack is parking. For visitors. For workers, there is not enough. There is a good bus service, but Cumbernauld "bus station" (basically the windy undercroft on both sides of the dual carriageway pictured) is in a special category of dismal. |
