Building record 1301/0/87 - Nos. 3-7 (odd) Blott's Gardens, Rotton Row

A range of four, single-storey boot and shoe workshops attached to the west gable end of a row of terraced houses. The workshops are brick built with a slate-covered lean-to roof. Ordnance Survey maps suggest that the workshops were built c.1890

{1} This short terrace of four two-storey houses has, against its west gable, a row of four tiny two-storeyed workshops, apparently contemporary with the houses. Each has its own entrance in the west front, and a first floor window above it. One of the four doors and one window have been blocked, and two windows have been refenestrated, but one retains its original three light window. One quarter of the lean-to roof has been renewed in concrete tiles. First shown on the 1899 2nd edition OS map.
