"The building now known as William Reynolds House (formerly Bowling Green Mill) is the surviving part of a much larger complex of buildings. This factory started about 1836 for sheepskin tanning powered by water from the nearby watercourse. In 1877 the factory was adapted to produce leather board. The façade of the surviving building was built between 1891 and 1906 by William Reynolds, architect for C & J Clark." http://www.mendip.gov.uk/Documents/Regeneration/Heritage%20Conservation/Conservation%20Area%20Appraisals/Street/Street%20Conservation%20Area%20Boundary%20Review%20-%20Urban%20Area.pdf Like so many buildings in the area, the material is Lias. The road on the right is simply called "Bowling Green" and leads to Street Drove.
