Description
Wallbridge Warehouse is a canal warehouse built in 1828, located on the north side of the Thames and Severn Canal as part of Wallbridge Wharf. It stands alongside the large coping stones of the former wharf walls.
The building is constructed from squared and coursed local limestone, featuring large ashlar quoins and dressings, with a slate-covered roof. It has a rectangular plan and is two storeys high beneath a pitched roof.
On the canalside elevation, there are central former door openings that have been partly sealed with brick and concrete block, with windows added at each level. There are upper windows on either side with metal frames, and the canalside openings have concrete lintels. Iron fixings are embedded in the elevation at various heights. The west gable end features wide double doors and a taking-in door above, both framed with ashlar stone architraves. The ground-floor doors have an oak lintel, while the upper opening has an ashlar lintel. The rear elevation includes two metal-framed windows at the upper level, flanking a central taking-in door with an ashlar architrave and timber lintel. The east gable shows some brick modifications and has a central taking-in door/window.
Inside, the ground floor has three evenly-spaced timber posts supporting the first-floor structure, set on a flagstone floor. There is a plain timber stair in the north-west corner. The first floor features 19th-century floorboards and a 19th-century king-post roof structure made up of four trusses.
