Rodboro Buildings, Grade II listed building in Guildford, England
The Rodboro Buildings feature three connected sections with steel frames, brown brick cladding, red brick details, large windows, and multiple skylights through three floors.
Built between 1901 and 1904, this structure gained recognition as one of England's first purpose-built car factories, manufacturing 300 vehicles annually by 1902.
The Academy of Contemporary Music occupies the upper levels while a Wetherspoon pub operates on the ground floor, making it a central spot for education and social activities.
Located at Bridge Street, the building opens daily from 8:00 AM, offering dining services, Wi-Fi access, outdoor seating, and modern audiovisual equipment.
The structure's transformation from a car factory to a shoe manufacturing facility in 1919 reflects the industrial changes in early 20th century England.
