Description

This late 18th-century warehouse is a long, three-storey building with six bays, situated with its gable end facing Shorehead and the Old Harbour to the south. The north gable is harled, while the rest of the structure is made of rubble with tooled ashlar dressings and margins. The east elevation features regular fenestration across its six bays, with a single entrance accessed by a masonry forestair. All first-floor windows have chamfered margins, and there are small first-floor windows located just below the wallhead. The north gable has paired windows on both the ground and first floors.
