Abstract: |
Pre-Construct Archaeology Limited was commissioned to undertake an Historic England Level 2 record of the former tannery works (latterly West Leigh Ltd) at 11-13 Spa Road, Bermondsey, prior to its demolition. The building recording identified that the former Beam House, a single and two storey tannery building dating from the mid and late 19th century, remained, although much repaired and altered following damage incurred during the Second World War. Wartime damage also extended across the wider area, to the adjoining tannery buildings of the same complex to the west and to those immediately to the south. The whole site was repaired and rebuilt post-war and continued in use by Whitmores (Edenbridge) Ltd up to 1959. Its subsequent re-use and the adaptions made to the buildings has removed all evidence of original or secondary fixtures and fittings associated with the tanning industry. The site however retains a high potential for the survival of 19th century or possibly earlier, tanning pits and associated structures. |
