Local List: Castle Factory, King Street (Daventry)

Date assigned 18 March 2021
Date last amended

Description

Three storeyed boot and shoe factory on the north side of King Street takes its name from the earthwork castle about 150 metres to the south west. It consists of two principle phases. The earliest phase of circa 1880 is to the west. Its low, broad proportions contrast strikingly with the taller storeys and more numerous windows of the later phase built by 1884. The adjoining house to the north-west, No.22 may also be associated with the factory. The building is still extant and is currently used as offices. The façade is intact, but considerable change to interior. Locally listed building.
