Standing Building Recording (14 December 2006 - 5 July 2007)
NS 6129 6201 Historic building recording was required at a number of sites in connection with the M74 Completion Project. The Glenford Works, a light engineering works, formed Work Package 3 in the overall programme. Work undertaken on 14 December 2006 included a photographic survey, written description and production of a ground floor plan. The Glenford Works buildings included a two-bay garage and a large single
storey L-plan shed with a symmetrical façade facing Quay Road, flanked by two-storey office and stair towers. The building dates from the mid 20th century, probably around 1950, and was used by the firm of J and H Rosenheim, a manufacturer of industrial packaging products. The building has now been demolished.
