More about this scene
We are looking across the Headlands estate towards Borough Hill and the BBC masts. To the right the spire of Holy Church stands out above the centre of Daventry. The field in the view became British Timken's distribution depot for some years, but has now recently become another housing estate. British Timken came to Daventry and Northampton in 1954, and was one of the major employers for many years. Both the factories have recently closed, sad to say.
