I am reliably informed that the photo was taken from the Coppice about 30 years ago using a 300mm Telephoto lens, thus giving a very foreshortened effect.

The Cooling Towers are on what is now the PC World area at Whirebirk.

The original Mount was demolished c1952 and the site remained as a "garden" until the ESMI Unit ( The Mount) was built c1984.

The 10,000 Ackers are still up for grabs.
