Richard, indeed it makes you cry, but in all fairness Pounds Yards is one of the major sources of surviving AFVs today. Many Sextons, M10s, Churchills, Centaur Dozers, M5A1 Stuarts and T16s seen today come from there. Luckily they were not all scrapped due to a slump in scrap steel prices and the fact that Harry Pounds likes/liked military vehicles - reportedly, of each type coming in his yard he kept the best. Also see this earlier thread: Carriers in Pounds shipyard
