fuzzy   10 #1 Posted April 24, 2005 Went past this place again today and i cant help but wonder what it is?  There is a weighbridge outside and those big green tubes coming up from the ground with a big white building in the middle. I guess it must be venting for something, but it just looks like the tellytubby land.  Does anyone know?? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...
SHarper   11 #2 Posted April 24, 2005 The weigh bridge isn't part of the complex, its for the vehicle inspectorate to catch naughty lorry drivers. The complex behind is something to do with HSBC bank I think, and there is a thread on this place somewhere......... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...
Tradescanthia   10 #3 Posted April 24, 2005 Its a secure computer records place, I think its HSBC. Very secret,very secure. The weighbridge has nothing to do with that place, its what the police and the ministry use for spot checks on lorries. Stray onto the HSBC site and security guards appear out of nowhere.
