The old workhouse tower cupola vane. I do ancestry & my great aunt died & her baby, 1930 at Sharoe Green hospital. I was told she lived in the workhouse. I didn't know this was a workhouse. All makes sense now. ©Topofthemoor

SD74 INT018 VANE. Very tall clock tower. Quite dark now so it was hard to tell if the vane was up there but asked a local who was "sure there was one up there, but would check tomorrow"! Looks like a very large Victorian hospital of some kind.
