Hume described it in the 1970s as built 1857 for Smieton and Co, linen manufacturers. A large block of single-storey weaving sheds, with ancillary buildings, including a handsome 2-storey, 21 bay calender shop, facing the railway. The roof beams in the weaving shed are wooden, with wrought-iron bracing and cast-iron straining posts. There is a red brick chimney, with 'GRANTS' in white brick. Now a warehouse. At its height the works had 600 staff, and 400 power looms producing 6 million yards of jute and linen annually. Smieton also built housing the in the surrounding area for his employees.
