Description
Sturge's Warehouse, also known as Reynold's Double Warehouse, is a bonded warehouse built in 1840 by architect S.W. Daukes of Gloucester and builder William Rees for corn merchants J and C Sturge. The building is located on the east side of the Dock's Main Basin and is shown on the OS map as a flour mill. It is constructed of red brick with stone lintels and sills for the window openings, and features parallel slate roofs with twin end-gables that have barge and eaves boards.
The warehouse is a large, almost square block with six storeys and lofts. Each side has a full-height loading door opening in the centre, equipped with timber doors for each floor. Above these openings, there is a timber, gabled cat-head hoist canopy. Flanking the loading doors are eight windows on each floor. The west gable-end wall has a similar arrangement, with a full-height loading door opening and timber doors for each floor and loft, four windows between the openings, and two windows on each floor at the outer sides. Each gable on either side of the loading door features a small window with a semicircular-arched head.
On the east gable-end wall, there are twelve windows across the full width of the block. In each gable, two central windows are flanked by a small window with a semicircular arched brick head on either side, and there is a similar small window in the apex of the gable. The interior has not been inspected.
