"The building now known as William Reynolds House (formerly Bowling Green Mill) is the surviving part of a much larger complex of buildings. This factory started about 1836 for sheepskin tanning powered by water from the nearby watercourse. In 1877 the factory was adapted to produce leather board. The façade of the surviving building was built between 1891 and 1906 by William Reynolds, architect for C & J Clark." http://www.mendip.gov.uk/Documents/Regeneration/Heritage%20Conservation/Conservation%20Area%20Appraisals/Street/Street%20Conservation%20Area%20Boundary%20Review%20-%20Urban%20Area.pdf Like so many buildings in the area, the material is Lias. The road on the right is simply called "Bowling Green" and leads to Street Drove.

Holy Trinity Church was built 1300-1460. Roman remains have been found in the churchyard.

The very elaborate roof of the nave. The parish church of the Holy Trinity has parts from the 13th, 14th and 15th centuries and it was heavily restored in 1826 and again in 1843. The church was refurbished in 2004. The earliest part is the chancel, 13th century with the nave and tower being 15th century. The interior is dominated by elaborate roofs, possibly 15th century. Listed, grade I, with details at: https://historicengland.org.uk/listing/the-list/list-entry/1058753 The village of Street is situated at the end of the Polden Hills on a dry spot in the Somerset Levels. There is evidence of Roman settlement. In the mid 17th century, the Society of Friends was established in Street and one of the Quaker families who settled here were the Clarks. In 1825 James Clark began the production of slippers and later shoes and boots. The business flourished under his son, William, but profits were ploughed back into employee welfare, housing and education. Much of the housing in the centre of Street was built by the company.

A view of Image from across Church Road and past a tall yew. "The Parish Church of the Holy Trinity stands slightly remote from the busy commercial and industrial life of Street" http://www.streetandwalton.co.uk/church/history.php , which gives a very thorough account of the church's history and architectural features. "It comes perhaps as a surprise to realise that this Church has a history at least as long as its renowned neighbour - Glastonbury Abbey - and that the present building is in parts considerably older than parts of the Abbey."

The Church of the Holy Trinity (Street Parish Church) is part of the Church of England Diocese of Bath & Wells. The church was built in the 13th century in a 6th century sacred Christian enclosure. The church was Grade I listed in 1949.
