Description

The boiler works, sheet metal works and galvanising plant, located in Mézières, would have been built in the late 19ᵉ or early 20ᵉ century. After the Second World War, it housed the Gaston Dham colour factory. Today, the site is divided between the Ponsart garage, on the Quai Roussel side, and the Espace Habitat technical premises, on the Rue d'Alsace and Boulevard Poirier sides. In 1943, the factory employed 48 people.

The complex, bordered by three streets near the river Meuse, comprises several buildings:
-On the Quai Roussel side, five limestone rubble buildings, with long-sloped or sheds roofs, and wooden frames covered with slate or sheet metal.
-On the rue d'Alsace side, rubble stone buildings with metal sheds, extended by three brick workshops with metal frames, covered in sheet metal or asbestos cement.
These buildings are flanked by offices and a caretaker's lodge forming a U-shape, built of limestone rubble with a square floor, near the main entrance.
