Description

The wagon house at the water pumping station is a building that has been converted into a store. It was likely built in the mid to late 19th century. The structure is made of red brick with sandstone dressings and has a slate roof. It features a rectangular plan under a two-span roof and is a high single storey designed in the Jacobean style.

The entrance front at the west end has twin gables and is divided into two bays. It includes a high moulded sandstone plinth, corner pilasters, and a central pilaster with stone quoins and bracketed stone cornices, topped with raised copings and ball finials. Each bay contains a segmental-arched wagon doorway with a stone surround that features a pendant keystone with a moulded cap and an engaged ball finial, along with wooden double doors that have fielded panels. Above each door is a small square opening with a stone surround, and a tall narrow window in the gable above, also with a stone surround. The gable has a raised "intrados" and sandstone dressings, along with gable copings that have apex finials.

The side walls have three bays and match the entrance front in style, featuring similar pilasters, cross-windows with pendant keystones, and a bracketed moulded cornice that leads to a low parapet with a small central pilaster in each bay. This building is noted for being an unusually complete survival.
