Warehouses Or Granaries On The West Side Of The Strand And In The Occupation Of Stonham And Company Agricultural Merchants And H R Clothier Agricultural And Marine Engineers And The Garden Centre

These warehouses or granaries, situated on the west side of The Strand, are occupied by Stonham and Company Agricultural Merchants, H R Clothier Agricultural and Marine Engineers, and a Garden Centre. The oldest sections date to the early 19th century, with the west end of the northern ranges bearing the inscription "SF 1823." This section comprises eight parallel ranges. Three of these westernmost ranges are two storeys high and constructed of red brick, tarred on the south side, with a tiled roof in three hips. The remaining five ranges have brick ground floors and weatherboarding above, all tarred. Two central ranges rise to four storeys, the upper two floors being weatherboarded with two gables.

A subsequent group of buildings, dated 1859, is mid-19th century and constructed of red brick with an eaves cornice and a hipped slate roof. These feature two round-headed windows on each of the north, south, and east sides, and three loft doors on the second floor. The inscription "Vidler and Sons" 1859 is above one of the north-facing windows. The western half displays tarred weatherboarding on the first and second floors. A curved north-west corner exists on this section.

Further west, also mid-19th century, are three parallel ranges. The north and central ranges are two storeys high and have red brick on a cemented base with half-hipped gable ends of tarred weatherboarding. The south range rises to three storeys with tarred weatherboarding above the ground floor, all under a tiled roof. A final building, formerly a corn mill, also dates to the mid-19th century. It consists of two parallel ranges, three storeys high and three windows wide, built of sandstone masonry heavily eroded by weather, and capped with a slate roof.

These premises, alongside The Ship Inn and No 15 Wish Ward, form a notable group.
