Description

This building, located on Tooley Street, is a distillery office constructed between 1900 and 1901. Designed by Aston Webb for Boord and Son, it originally served a now-demolished distillery and was associated with other warehouses, also now demolished. The building is constructed of brown brick with a stone frontispiece at ground level, a stone cornice and detailing, and red brick dressings. It has a slate roof and is in a Free Classical style, arranged over three storeys with a mezzanine above the ground floor and a full attic storey. The building comprises five bays plus rounded corner tourelles. Returns to the right and left incorporate a recent, one-bay extension on the site of a former warehouse. A central, segmental-headed entrance features an open pediment with a prominent keystone. The ground floor has double panelled timber doors and segmental-headed tripartite windows with prominent keystones, though these are obscured. Square-headed, flush-framed sash windows with glazing bars are present on the mezzanine level. Moulded stone cornices run around the tourelles, which rise from ground level to the attic, each featuring a pair of windows on every floor except the second. Strong slab chimneys are accented with stone bands. A stone modillion cornice is present on the second floor, with a smaller subsidiary cornice towards the attic. The interior has not been inspected.
