A complication of rooflines in splendid Accy brick. Obviously industrial, what is the building called?

The first with the name takes away 10,000 ackers.

Re: Puzzle 18

Well it's the right colour!

Could it be the hospital? Or is that another wrong tree I'm barking up?

Re: Puzzle 18

And did you pick blackberries on the slope on the side of Bath Street? I used to love doing that when I was little.
