Description
The Town Goods Shed in St Mary's Goods Yard is a goods shed built around 1860. It is constructed of red brick with red brick and ashlar dressings, topped with a slate roof featuring overhanging eaves. The building is single storey with a triple ridge roof running north-south.
The north front has a central train entrance divided into three sections by square cast iron columns, with single round-headed windows on either side. These windows have unusual diamond light metal glazing bars, and there is another single window to the left. The east and west fronts are identical, featuring alternating groups of three round-headed windows and large loading entrances. A projecting protective roof is supported by 28 cast iron brackets, each decorated with four decreasing circles.
On the south front, there is another central train entrance divided into three by square cast iron columns, flanked by projecting lower office wings that both have round-headed windows and doors. This building was likely designed for the Midland Railway by the architects Thompson and Fryer.
