This fairly modern post 1945 style industrial building, see also Image is no longer used as a woollen mill by the Axminster Carpets group of companies. Behind what appears to be an office area can be seen the weaving sheds which would have housed the looms and other large machines. The building appears to be currently used to store products for the adjoining Devonia Sheepskins factory Image
