Abstract: |
The Saggar House and Drying Shed at the former Sharpe's Pottery in Swadlincote, Derbyshire, has been the subject of a written, drawn and photographic record, undertaken as a condition for permission to demolish them. The Saggar House and Drying Shed were built in the period 1856-73, part of the expansion of Sharpe's Pottery into sanitary ware manufacture from 1855. In the 1950s a separate Mess Room was built adjoining the Drying Shed. Archive evidence is combined with an analysis of the building to place the building in its historical context and to explain changes to the building over time. Both ranges were altered in the twentieth century and the building was adapted to light-industrial use after closure of the pottery in 1968. No internal diagnostic features were recorded. |
