Site B, like Site A which was near me (and which is complete), is another several-year long large scale development - this one branded Phoenix - transforming land use from heavy industrial to new build housing.

Before setting off I wrapped my feet in carrier bags, knotting the handles, and put on my leaky, old boots.  If I'd thought about it a bit more I would have figured it it wasn't going to be very wet this time and could have dispensed with the carrier bag effort as of course the water had transformed from liquid to its solid form.  It's sometimes alter-ego.

It was 2.15pm-ish when I got there and in and the sun was already sliding to the horizon, eclipsed by small trees on the embankment, and then soon after by the embankment itself.
