Description

In September 1969 Laing announced it would be building a 280,000 square foot steel-framed warehouse for Boots at their Beeston site. The building would be located near to an existing warehouse completed by Laing in 1966. The new warehouse was completed within a deadline of 49 weeks.

This image was catalogued as part of the Breaking New Ground Project in partnership with the John Laing Charitable Trust in 2019-20.
