A block of flats that was converted from a former warehouse in 2007. The building is the sole survivor of a former tannery run by GW Breach & Son that operated here from the early 19th century until its closure in 1941. The former factory which concentrated on making sheepskin products occupied all the area north of the lane to the junction with Breach Close, itself named after the former factory.
