Building Adjacent (North Side) to Security House

This building, located on the north side of Security House, is possibly a horse engine house dating from around 1850, with likely earlier origins from about 1830, and has undergone later alterations and additions. It is constructed of reddish-brown brick in Flemish bond and features a pitched slate roof. The structure includes cast-iron supporting columns and a cast-iron framed window, and is approximately semi-circular in plan. It is a single-storey building with an entrance on the south side. Each gable end has a ventilation eye, while the east elevation facing Barbourne Road has a fixed multi-pane window, where the center four panes pivot on a horizontal axis, topped by a segmental arch and a flush brick sill. The roof ridge runs east-west, and the wall-plate on the south elevation is supported by two cast-iron columns with later brick infill. There are 20th-century vertically boarded folding doors in the center, consisting of six leaves, with half-height obscured glazing on each side, and three fixed lights to the right of the door and twelve to the left.

Inside, the roof is supported by four cast-iron columns and simple timber trusses, with a blue-brick paved floor. Historically, this building was likely part of the former Spreckley's Brewery, and it is thought to have housed a horse-driven water pump. A line of cut bricks at approximately 1.3 meters high suggests that the building was erected on the site boundary wall. It is shown on the 1886 Ordnance Survey Map as having a separate access. The remainder of the brewery, except for the malting house which has been converted into housing, was demolished before 1973.
