| Abstract: |
A desktop study was undertaken that examined part of the St. George Poor House or Workhouse site. The original building was erected in 1801, extended later, but became redundant when a larger facility was opened elsewhere. By the early 1870's this was the Crown pottery, which included additional buildings such as a bank of three main kilns with two smaller kilns in the yard. A soap works occupied the buildings from the beginning of the 20th century but the business later closed and was replaced by a tin printing works, which moved out in the late 1960's. At the time of the study there were several small businesses occupying the site. [Au(adp)] |
