Description
This building is a warehouse, now converted into flats, located on the corner of Duke Street and known as Warehouse Number 10. It was constructed in the mid-18th century and underwent alterations in the 20th century. The exterior features squared coursed sandstone with ashlar dressings at the front, while the sides and rear are made of coursed rubble. The roof is slate, gabled towards the road, with a projecting verge over the central two-thirds. The building is approximately 15 meters deep and has a facade that is about 6 meters wide, with four storeys above a cellar.
Architectural details include chamfered quoins and a central loading slot with a plain surround, flanked by panels on each floor. The windows are fitted with 20th-century single-pane pivot frames. Notably, there is no panel in the left half of the top floor, likely to provide support for the 19th-century iron crane. On the ground floor, the left-hand panel is replaced by a doorway, and the loading slot is fitted with glazed doors. Additionally, the left-hand return wall facing Duke Street features another loading slot with a projecting verge, which is also glazed. The warehouse was built on Plot 29.
