Anise Warehouse

Anise Warehouse is a warehouse built around 1813, with its roof reconstructed between 1830 and 1850. The building is constructed of brick in Flemish bond and features a parapeted roof with a gable facing. It stands four storeys tall over a basement and has a five-window range on the gable-facing elevation, with unglazed granary windows that retain their original wooden shutters. All the windows are segmental-arched, except for a round window in the gable and another round window at the basement entrance on the right party wall. To the centre left of the façade is a hoist bay.

Inside, the warehouse has a timber construction with stanchions arranged on a 4-meter grid. The roof spans 11 meters clear and is supported by wrought-iron hanger rods instead of queen posts, which are suspended from cast-iron junction boxes and feature cast-iron shoes for the raking struts. In the 1850s, the rear section of the warehouse contained two corn-drying kilns. Anise Warehouse is part of a group of listed warehouse and wharf buildings in Shad Thames.
