Abstract: |
The aim of the evaluation was to provide sufficient information to assess the impact of any proposed works on the industrial archaeology of the buildings. Number 24 Sheepcote Street was a Grade II Listed Building, the majority of the other industrial buildings within the study area were Grade A locally listed. Industrial development within the study area took place within a relatively short time-span, between 1857 and 1903. Prior to 1857 the site was undeveloped. At No 24 Sheepcote Street were the Standard Works of Lawson and Holden (est. 1857), which produced finished goods in iron and brass. In 1871 the tube and rolling mills of Grice, Grice and Booth were first listed at No 25, Sheepcote Street. In 1896 James Booth & Co took over the Standard Works and the two sites were amalgamated.
