Westbury Wiltshire, UK. 18th Sept, 2016. Hundreds of people gather to watch the demolition of the iconic Westbury Cement Works chimney. The landmark which is 400ft (122 metres) in height and nearly as tall as Salisbury Cathedrals spire had dominated the landscape since the warly 1960's. A series of controlled explosions brought the structure down at 7AM Sunday morning. Lucky schoolgirl Lily Sargent pressed the detonator plunger. Wayne Farrell/Alamy News
