Abstract: |
A Historic Building Significance Assessment was undertaken for HSS Architects on the 15th of April 2008 as a result of a proposal to demolish it for apartments and office space. The building lies within the Druid Quarter Conservation Area which encompasses a variety of light industrial and domestic buildings dating from the 19th century to the present day. The Laban Tansey building appears to have begun life in the mid to late 19th century as a small two-storied needleworks which was subsequently extended by the addition of a late 19th century gable-ended building which was also extended to the rear, proabaly pre WWI. Despite manby external features surviving no internal fixtures or details remain to indicate the former use of any part of the building. |
