Abstract: |
An historic building survey and watching brief was carried out by prior to and during demolition of the buildings and associated structures. The plant formed part of the larger 19th- and 20th-century Fox Brothers' textile factory at Tonedale. Two buildings of historical significance survived from the first stage of the Grease Refinery in the later 19th century. Other late 19th- and early 20th-century buildings and structures were mainly in very poor condition. Two pump houses of the mid-twentieth century and a number of settling pits and tanks were also identified. A full survey of the plant was prepared, including phasing of the building, settling pits, tanks and channels. |
