I recall there used to be a petrol station there.
Maybe the underground fuel tanks were not dealt with properly when it closed down.

There was and before that a row of shops (maybe houses not sure exactly). My grandma used to have a dress shop on that terrace, they bought the row, knocked them down and built the petrol station.

Ossy Mills is definitely worth a visit, especially if you've never been before. Plenty to look at with lots of unusual things for sale, it's not a bad way of spending an hour or two. There's a garden area out the back too.
