Oakleaf Puzzle 4

This one is a lot harder and so I will award Two Clusters of leaves for this one.

These three photographs show the only visible remains of a building feared and shunned by the whole town. What is it and where is it?

Looking at the people in the town centre I was going to say a job centre, but is it the old TB sanitorium, to the right of King Georges playing fields. The first photo looks like it looks down on to the old railway line and Priestly Clough.

I was thinking it was in the clough somewhere too. Don't know what it is.

I also think it is near the Priestley Clough. Wasn't there a reputed witch lived near Riley Cottages? Is this the connection A-B?

There was a farmer in that neck of the woods who used to shoot people.

Well there you go, you try to be clever and you inevitably get shot down in flames. I had thought this one would ruin everyone's Easter.

But Uncle Mick gets it right at the first go! Harrumphf!

So it's congratulations, felicitations and two Oak Leaf Clusters to the Victor; Uncle Mick.
