Factory that was first marked on 1974 maps. From 1893 maps show part of the Hope Glassworks, owned by the Rylands, (see HSY7889 and HSY7890) on this site. The glassworks had been demolished by the 1930s probably in 1927 when Rylands glassworks closed (Ashurst 1992, 126). Prior to the industrial activity, this was an area of regular enclosure probably part of the 1762 Ardsley parliamentary award (date from English 1985). There is no legibility of the past landscape.
