Grangemouth

At night the refinery can be seen from miles away casting an orange glow on the clouds overhead that flicker like a fireplace. Close up it roars like a very, very loud blowtorch and the countryside around it is bathed with a surreal, flickering, artificial daylight. Getting a decent view of it is problematic because the security at the refinery don't take kindly to people photographing it and the neighbouring hilltops are well sceened by trees.
