Former railway workshops, Grainger's Way

Image: © Alan Murray-Rust Taken: 11 Dec 2017

Workshops associated with the neighbouring Roundhouse locomotive shed. Built c.1845 by Thomas Grainger for the Leeds and Thirsk Railway. In recent years the building has been restored with later additions being removed to reveal the original form of the building. The right hand end of the building with its chimneys was almost certainly a forge shop. Listed Grade II. This blue plaque http://www.geograph.org.uk/photo/5627576 explains the importance of this building and its neighbours.
