Description

Vinings Warehouse, also known as Reynolds Warehouse, is a warehouse built in 1840, with later alterations in the 19th century. It was designed by TS Hack, architect, and built by William Wingate, for CJ Vining, a corn merchant. The warehouse is constructed of red brick with stone lintels and sills around the window openings, and has a gabled slate roof. Distinctive features include timber gabled hoist housings at each end of the ridge, as well as timber barge and eaves boards. Inside, it contains internal hollow cast-iron columns supporting timber floors.

The building is a large rectangular block, with the west gable-end facing the Main Basin. Originally five storeys with a double-height ground floor, it was later altered to six storeys with the insertion of a floor dividing the ground floor. The north side has fourteen small windows to the north floor. A full-height loft door opening with timber doors to each floor is centrally located on the west gable-end wall, with an iron fire escape stair on the west end, flanked by two windows and a small window in the gable. Some windows retain their original iron-framed casements. A full-length, white-painted panel inscribed in black letters "REYNOLDS' FLOUR MILLS" is located at high level on the north side. The east gable has a central doorway and a single window on the right-hand side on the ground and first floors; above that, there are six windows on each of the subsequent four floors, and four windows on the gable floor, with a date stone in the apex. A two-storey extension is attached to the left-hand side of the central doorway.

On the south side, a full-height opening is flanked by six windows, with a gabled cat-headed hoist canopy at eaves level and a later first-floor door. The interior has not been inspected.
