This oval metal maker's plate on the gate bears raised letters that read CALDERS & GRANDIDGE LTD BOSTON.
 
The timber importing firm of Calders is thought to have been established c 1820. In 1945 Calders Ltd acquired James Grandidge Ltd and took the combined name in 1959.
 
Calders & Grandidge operated from Boston docks from 1896 but moved to a larger 30-acre site on London Road in the 1930s.
 
The premises have long been notable for the strong smell of creosote!
