tanneries
Leather production facilities
Tanneries is the plural of tannery—a place where animal hides are converted into leather through tanning.
The process historically involved soaking skins in solutions containing tannins from tree bark.
Tanneries were notoriously foul-smelling and often relegated to the outskirts of towns: The old tanneries along the river have been converted to lofts.
