Abstract/Summary
The former boot and shoe factory located within Bowlers Yard on the south-east side of the High Street has undergone considerable changes to its fabric, both during its original life as a boot and shoe factory and subsequently, as a pie factory, wine importing warehouse and joinery workshop. The latter appear to have all taken place during the second half of the twentieth century and each phase no doubt caused further changes to be made although it is impossible now to determine their sequence with any certainty. Distinctive features such as extensive racking (mostly pre-formed Dexion-type metal or timber shelving) bearing the names of various vineyards relate to the most recent use of the core buildings. No fixtures or fittings remain from the boot and shoe period of the buildings’ use.
