Abstract:		 A Level 3 historic building survey was undertaken by the University of Leicester Archaeological Services (ULAS) between the 15th and 18th of October 2018. The survey studied the former Britannia Works on Coleshill Road, Atherstone, Warwickshire. The Grade-II listed works are the last hat-making factory in Atherstone and have been closed since 1999. The site has been used as a hat works since the early 19th century and developed as the Britannia Works and Richmond Mill until they combined in the first half of the 20th century. There are a number of buildings on site ranging from the earliest structures from both factories up to the 1930s when a large modern steel-framed building replaced many of the earlier and smaller buildings. Following the decline of the hatting industry the associated factories in and around Atherstone closed down leaving the Britannia Works to continue until 1999. Plans have been submitted to redevelop the site for housing which will entail the demolition of some of the structures.
