Boots Factory Site

The Boots Factory Site at Beeston, Nottinghamshire, England, is the location for the headquarters of Boots UK Limited. The site was developed from 1926 as the manufacturing, packing and distribution centre for the pharmaceutical company developed by Jesse Boot. The site contains a number of significant buildings, including "some of the most important" examples of 20th-century Modernist design in Britain. The most important are the two designed by Owen Williams; the D10, 'Wets' building, and the D6, 'Drys' building. Both are Grade I listed buildings; D10 being the largest Grade I listed structure in Britain. The headquarters office, D90, was designed by Skidmore, Owings & Merrill and is designated a Grade II* listed building.
