Today lunchtime just driving past what remains of the factory and the famous Elect Cocoa tower was in the process of coming down. This is the one that features prominently on the factory pictorial tins, packets & signs. Another bit of social history gone. The second photo shows the culprit, what must be the mother of all concrete nibblers, having a T & KitKat break from its destructive foray.

Dispicable act by Nestle who have destroyed this once great company. Watch out Cadbury this could the future for Birmingham too. Nestle and Kraft are the two largest food company predators in the world leaving a path of destruction behind them with every acquisition they make.
