94, Vauxhall Street And Warehouse Facing Vauxhall Quay

This is an early 19th century warehouse situated on a wharf, incorporating an account house. It is located on Vauxhall Street, in the Barbican area of Plymouth, and has a warehouse fronting onto Vauxhall Quay.

The building is constructed of painted brick to the front of the house, and Plymouth limestone rubble elsewhere, with segmental brick arches over the openings. The roof is slate with deep eaves to the house, featuring a central gabled dormer and a rubble stack on the right-hand side. A corrugated asbestos roof runs at a right angle behind the right-hand side, returning to a taller roof parallel at the rear with a hip at the corner.

The house front is symmetrical and three storeys high, plus an attic, with three windows. It has sash windows with horns, and blind windows above a round-arched, rusticated and textured Coade stone doorway, featuring a carved head keyblock and a 12-pane fanlight. The warehouse is four storeys high. The return warehouse front has a two-bay section adjoining the house, with blocked attic windows and sash windows matching those of the house. The subsequent bays have windows with glass blocks to the upper floors, with three ground-floor doorways with ledged doors and blocked round-arched ventilators above. A final bay has three loading doorways with pairs of ledged doors, and a steel hoist beam at the top.

The interior of the building has not been inspected, but it is likely to be largely unaltered. The combination of an account house and warehouse makes this building a rare survival of a unique building type.
