Wandering around Hauxton and Foxton, Cambridgeshire

I drive pass these places every day on my way to work, so over the weekend had a look around at a more leisurely pace, hope you enjoy the pictures.

Old barn Foxton

Old tracks leading to Barrington cement works, Cambridgeshire

nice pics there. i sure like the mill building.

barrington cement is still running isn't it? is it just the railway defunct or have they demolished the whole cement works? i don't go that way very much but i remember it was in some trouble/buyout or something a while back.

Thanks for all your comments

The Barrington site is still running, and looks like it will be in use/alternative use for quite some time http://www.buildersmerchantsjournal.net/news/news.asp?id=5628&title=Cemex+to+close+Barrington+cement+plant
