Anglo-Scotian Mills was built as a lace curtain factory in 1877 by Francis Wilkinson, when it was one of the largest in the world. It suffered serious fires in 1886 and 1892 after which the present Gothic frontage was constructed. It is now listed by the Department of the Environment as being of special architectural or historical importance. (information from www.nottingham.ac.uk)
