Offices to Springfield Mill Factory with Attached Wall and Lavatory Blocks

The offices for Springfield Mill Factory, built in 1888 for Terah Hooley by architect A Sheldon, are constructed of red brick with red and yellow terracotta and stone details. The building features a brick plinth with blue brick copings and a carved stone band on the first floor that has the inscription 'T HOOLEY LIMITED'. There are terracotta mouldings above and below this band, as well as continuous terracotta hoodmouldings over all windows and terracotta roundels above the ground floor windows. The slate roof is adorned with stone-coped gables on moulded stone kneelers and brick gable stacks, along with an elaborately moulded and corbelled eaves cornice in terracotta, which includes a small central gable.

The structure is two storeys high and consists of five bays. The central entrance features a semi-circular headed doorcase with a moulded inner edge and alternating red and yellow voussoirs, topped by a raised hoodmould over the keystone. Below this, there are inappropriate 20th-century doors and a plain fanlight. Flanking the entrance are pairs of semi-circular headed plain sash windows with similar detailing to the doorcase. Above, five semi-circular headed plain sashes are set beneath plain red voussoirs. The small central gable above has a decorative stone base set in a crowstepped panel of red bricks, with yellow bricks making up the rest of the gable, which is topped by stone copings and a ridge ball finial.

Attached to the west gable wall is a red brick wall with moulded terracotta copings. In the center of this wall are a pair of plain gate piers with large moulded stone copings. To the north and south of the wall are two blocks of back-to-back lavatories, which are part of the original factory complex. Each lavatory block has a slate roof with a louvred ridge vent and a vent halfway up the roof, and each side contains six sets of lavatories with plank doors.
