Although the advertising flag on the side optimistically offers business units to let, this Edwardian works building (from 1909 according to the plaque above the main entrance) appears to be in a sorry state with many broken and boarded up windows. The leaning lamp post at the right hand end only adds to the general air of dereliction.
