I've had a good look and I can't see anything I recognise as R&R's kit, but there's a bit of James King's equipment.

Hi Kieran that is Wednesbury and that would be the start of the construction of what is the Black Country spine road.
The site at Leabrook Road was built on part of what had once been a scrap yard called Brasway PLC plus other local businesses, across the road from that had once been the famous Patent Shaft steel works.
