History

Factory Place was built in the early C19 to house workmen and women at the adjoining woollen manufactory, which opened in 1806. The houses are shown on the 1842 Tithe map.

The central entrance has a lean-to porch with half-glazed door. Set forward on the L side is a 2-window extension under a slate roof with L end stack and doorway in the gable end. The rear of the extension is splayed, where the house backs on to the road. The rear of the main house has an added half dormer.
