Dist:0.5km<br/>This is the entrance to Cloud Hill Enterprises, now a business Park. Unit 25 used to be Arc Microfilm which became Arc Document Management. Locally it is still known as the Shadow Factory. It was built early in World War Two for the Parnall Aircraft Company after it’s Yate factory was bombed. As many as 400 people worked here building among other things wings and tail planes for Lancaster bombers. Originally there was a railway line into it passing from behind where the picture was taken, and going into the right hand entrance. It had a much larger entrance with large sliding doors, which have only recently gone. During the war the roof was painted to look like water so the Germans would not find it. The quarry was made originally for material for the Pensford Railway Viaduct. Another picture see http://www.geograph.org.uk/photo/1406074

Dist:0.5km<br/>Best described here as a narrow road with passing places. An interesting drive rather than a fast one.
