Site Comments:

A well-preserved but deserted industrial structure built from local limestone. Built at the end of the 19th century this was apparently a cheese factory. All openings into the building have been bricked up (no doubt to protect the interior from vandals). The structure which represents a regionally unique aspect of industrial heritage, would benefit by informed and carefully managed redevelopment. On the other hand, a badly informed and poorly researched "restoration" would have a negative impact on the significance of the site.
