Description

No. 6 Flitcroft Street is a warehouse built around 1850, which has been significantly rebuilt and refronted around 1881. It is currently used as open-plan offices. The building features yellow and red brick and has a roof that is likely tiled with a central ridge lantern, though it is now covered with felt.

The exterior consists of four storeys and a basement, with six windows on a slanting corner site. There are two entrances on the right; the one at the angle is flanked by brick pilasters that support a lugged panel, with a 20th-century panelled door surrounded by glass. To the left, there is a segmental-arched opening with 20th-century double panelled doors and an overlight. A later large ground floor window opening has a plain cornice and another entrance with altered glazing.

On the first floor, there are transom and mullion windows in shallow segmental-arched recesses, linked by moulded red brick impost bands. The window above the entrance on the right is square-headed and features a projecting wooden box cornice on moulded brick corbels, while the adjacent window has a shaped cut brick apron. There is a moulded red brick dentil cornice at the second floor level, with transom and mullion windows that have segmental heads. The third floor has a moulded red brick cornice at the sill level, with small, square-headed paired windows. The second right bay features a projecting gable dormer with stepped brick sill brackets and a small square window above. The building is topped with a cornice and blocking course.

Inside, the space is plain, with cast-iron columns that have winged capitals supporting the floors, and a complex queen post timber roof structure. Historically, the warehouse is noted to have been used by a tin box manufacturer in the late 19th century. No. 6 is an unusual survival of a warehouse in this part of London and forms a group with another warehouse at No. 12 Flitcroft Street.
