Description
New Concordia Wharf is a cornmill and warehouse block that includes a chimney and water tower, now used for residential and commercial purposes. It was built in 1882 and reconstructed between 1894 and 1898 after a fire, with restoration and conversion taking place from 1981 to 1983. The building is constructed of stock brick with yellow brick dressings and features a stepped brick parapet with coping.
The structure is part of a complex of buildings surrounding a courtyard on the east side of St Saviour's Dock. The main street elevation is six storeys high and consists of eight bays. There is a full-height hatch rank in the third bay from the right, which now has balconies. The ground floor has three blank windows on the left, with a recent timber shop front to the right. All windows are topped with segmental, gauged yellow brick arches, and some recessed drainpipes are visible.
At the southern end of the range, there is a brick chimney stack on a moulded stone base, which has recently been rebuilt at the top. The chimney is raised on a tall square brick pedestal with arched panels and a moulded Portland stone cornice. To the north-west, there is a tall brick water tower that connects with the dockside range, standing eight storeys high. The top 'belvedere' features three arched recesses on each face, now containing windows, with a projecting metal parapet above. The ground floor is open as a walkway, and the windows have been altered with balconies added to each floor.
The gabled south return and yard elevation have similar window details to the street elevation. Some structural cruciform cast-iron columns have been exposed in the yard. There is a new elevation to the north where a previous warehouse was attached. The interior has not been inspected. This building is part of the former St Saviour's Flour Mill and has strong group value with the other New Concordia Wharf buildings and the entire range of warehouses in Mill Street.
