A warehouse with offices on the Attleborough Fields industrial estate. The Adams children's clothing business was founded in by Amy Adams in Birmingham in 1933. By the early 2000s the business had passed through several changes of ownership and had over two hundred stores and several international franchises. It went into administration in 2006, 2008 and finally in 2010, when its remaining stores closed. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Adams_Kids The abandoned offices were lived in by property guardians until 2013. The bathroom goods retailer Soak.com then used the warehouse until it too ceased trading in 2020. https://www.coventrytelegraph.net/news/coventry-news/nuneaton-based-soakcom-collapses-goes-18327735
