There wasn't much else they could with it, the ground was so poisonous. If nature has taken over I imagine the dioxins have dissipated!

No the Dioxins are still there the actual Carbo (as we used to call it) site is under soil remidiation they are heating loads of soil up to cause the dioxins and other stuff to vapourise and then they are collecting the stuff and liquifying it so the whole area smells like San Izal at times when the winds wrong

the old sidings at the East side of the main line between Bridge Street, Tupton and Mill Lane Grassmoor/Wingerworth are where the Nature reserve is - - -Oh and the old sewerage plant on the West side of the main line too is part of it so there are some nice vantage points for photography of Trains

This is one from the Western side
