Description
The former warehouse, dating from the early 19th century, is a three-storey brick building with an attic and a plain tiled roof, located on the southwest side of Drayton Passage in Shrewsbury. It features a two-window range and has been constructed in two phases. The right-hand section is likely the oldest part, characterized by wide loading doors with single ring cambered heads on each floor, and gabled doors to the attic that are now part-glazed. There is a doorway with a flat lintel on the ground floor that may have been inserted, and the arched head of a blocked opening can be seen to the right. The building has a dentilled eaves cornice and a coped gable. In the left-hand section, there is a blocked door with a single ring cambered head and an inserted door to its right. Above, there are blocked windows with single ring cambered heads and an additional opening, also now blocked, with a flat lintel. The brickwork of the gable wall is corbelled out over the ground floor across the angle.
