La la, not listening...

Nature is no respecter of man's attempts to create order... This used to be the entrance to a small garden centre near the lock at Hirst Wood, Saltaire. It was once a nice little place but the owners didn't really, I think, have the skills to make a go of it. They sold plants very cheaply but much was not of great quality. In these competitive times, to make any business survive you have to have an edge and predictably the place closed a few years ago. Since then the glasshouses and sheds have started to fall down and it is all gradually being overtaken by nature, out of which presumably it was once born. It's a shame as the site is a bit of an eyesore now, in an attractive spot.
