View towards the end of a lane (or yard) off Highgate, which starts beside Ye Olde Fleece Inn (photo http://www.geograph.org.uk/photo/3434709 ). The Old Shambles was built in 1779 to house the town's butchers. Animals were slaughtered in the street but the site was badly drained, so must have been quite unpleasant even by the standards of the day. After only 25 years the butchers moved to the 'New Shambles' in the Market Place. The butchers' shops have since been converted to dwellings. The taller building at the head of the yard was originally The Butcher's Arms pub, which was later used as a dye factory and a warehouse. Today it appears to be in residential use. It is a listed building http://www.imagesofengland.org.uk/details/default.aspx?id=75472 . Historical information from walk booklet by Kendal Civic Society.

Located in Smokehouse Yard, next door to Booths supermarket. The building had been in a dilapidated state for many years before being restored in 2007. Today it is once again in use as a smokehouse https://www.pappystexasbarbeque.co.uk/ . It is a Grade II listed building - for particulars see Images of England http://www.imagesofengland.org.uk/details/default.aspx?id=75499 . The smoke house was built in the 1880s by a local grocery business, as part of a small meat factory. It was used for both air curing and smoking. Information from JWRC Conservation http://jwrc.co.uk/recording_research_ex3_smoke_house.html , which has a brief history of the site, and several interesting photos taken before redevelopment.
