I see it is now a Furniture Warehouse - can't think how I missed that one (Something to look forward to after lockdown......)
A metal foundry was set up in Cricklade Street by the Quaker Henry Alexander in 1849, later taken over by John Delve (Listed in Kelly's Directory for 1889 as "Delve Iron & Brass Founder Corinium Foundry Cricklade Street")
In the 1890s the foundry moved to Watermoor Road. Richmond & Co. extended the premises and added a shed in 1900. In the 20th century the owners were Samuel Jukes and later Fred Hope.
There only seems to be one old photo:
