The older buildings on the left are the remains of the tannery of Edmond & William Charles French who took over existing premises in 1891. The site was still working in the 1980s and housed a part dismantled beam engine that is now with a private collector - Image I'm sure the neighbours don't miss it as tanneries tend to be smelly places.
