I have a fondness for the Foster & Rastrick foundary in Stourbridge - the site where the first steam locomotive that ran in America was made. So this building is well over 150 years old - look at the steel roof trusses. The building had been used right to within the last 5 years and there are plans for it to be saved from demolition, as reported in the Stourbridge News. Otherwise it would have been as site of desolation. I hope more of it than my picture is preserved. Must confess that I'm not one for sepia tones, but this one seemed to work better in sepia than in colour or B&W.
