Back of No 6 Glasshouse

Image: Photo taken during the 1945-1946 demolition. It shows the back side of number 6 glasshouse, ie the opposite side to number 23 (photo no 30). Note the disused railway lines and the slope in the middle of the picture which led to the ashing areas of the raw gas producers.
