Now it gets harder.

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.

Taskers or part of what was once Queens Mill on Penny House Lane/Queens Road.

Well it makes a change from Oakhill Park, but it is still wrong. Though I can see where you might be coming from.

If you mean the bit from the back as seen from Ormerod Street, then you are barking up the wrong tree altogether.

Well it's the right colour!

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

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