Sadly demolished in the late 1970s, the Packing House was the place where finished goods from the Flax Mill factory were packed and despatched - the 6 bricked-up openings in the wall behind the cars are just about all that survives to tell the tale. That wall was Grade II listed https://www.britishlistedbuildings.co.uk/101254856-ditherington-flax-mill-stables-and-remains-of-packing-warehouse-shrewsbury#.WzCWvqdKhPY in 1987, along with the Image just off to the right here.
