Smoko Area Type:Framed Bar Billiards at RozelleThree armchairs sit on a concrete floor in what was the smoko area of the Northcote Shoe Factory, surrounded by collapsed cardboard boxes, steel shelving stacked with plastic crates, and a galvanised rubbish bin near the door. The factory on Arthurton Road, purpose built in 1926, operated under the Purnell Shoe Company name by the 1970s before closing as cheap imports dismantled the local footwear industry. Part of the Northcote Shoe Factory series.
