Warehouse, now flats (converted 1994). Mid C18, altered C20. Squared coursed sandstone with ashlar dressings to the front with coursed ruble to the sides and rear. Slate roof with gable to the road, and a projecting verge over the central two-thirds. Approx 15m deep on plan behind a facade which is approx 6m wide. 4 storeys above a cellar. Chamfered quoins. Central loading slot which has a plain surround, as do all the openings, and is flanked by a panel on each floor. C20 single-pane pivot frames. There is no panel in the left half of the top floor, doubtless to strengthen the wall behind the crane, which is a C19 iron replacement. On the ground floor the place of the left-hand panel is taken by the doorway. The loading slot is glazed with doors. The left-hand return wall to Duke Street also has a loading slot with projecting verge, glazed. HISTORY: built on Plot 29.
