Atkins Building: A Historic Landmark with a Vision for the Future
Originally home to Atkins of Hinckley, a prominent hosiery manufacturer since 1722, the Atkins Building bears witness to Hinckley's rich industrial heritage. When the Atkins business was taken over by Coates Viyella in 1995, hosiery production continued until the factory's closure in 2002. As the oldest existing and operating hosiery factory in the world at the time, the Atkins Building holds a unique place in Hinckley's history. Today, the building has been transformed into a hub for innovation and creativity, honouring its past while embracing the future.
