United Kingdom / England / Woolavington /

Now used by a variety of firms, as a small business park.

(Its understandable why the Milk Factory was sited here, adjacent to the railway (and briefly, canal) and road. Movement of bulk milk to the site - especially from the dairy-rich levels & moors of Mid-Somerset - could be readily achieved).
In many ways, the siting of this former plant is now mirrored by the more recent growth of trading estates, warehousing and some manufacturing along the M5 corridor - with ease of (regrettably road, not rail) transport being of primary importance.
