Stafford Box on the corner of Marston Road and Wogan Street

The building was opened as a shoe factory in 1862 by Richard Podmore & Sons. In 1916 the factory was taken over by the Stafford Box Company who produced cartons and finally closed in 2002. It has been converted into apartments. Shoe manufacturing was an important part of Stafford's economy but all factories (or mills) are now closed. The area around here is sometimes known as the shoe district.
