Full Description
{1} This range of at least six north-lit sheds first appears on the 1964 OS map. It is possible that this is the site of the Norton and Lawman factory; the firm moved from the Excelsior Boot and Shoe Works on Scarborough Street to the site of a former rectory (Extensive Urban Survey report).
