Description

This is a 3-storey, 9-bay former gassing mill, built in 1922 and designed by William James Morley & Son for J & P Coats as part of their Anchor Mill complex. It is currently a business centre (2016). The building is a steel-framed, painted brick building with a projecting cornice and blocking course. The majority of the windows are large, aluminium multi-pane windows which have raised cills and are set in recessed panels. There are some bronze multi-frame windows to the east elevation. The entrance doors to the principal (south) elevation are non-traditional replacements. There is a carved stone depiction of the face of Sir James Clark above an entrance to the northwest. There are rooflights within the flat roof.

The interior was seen in 2016. Each floor has maple timber floorboards and has been divided by partitions to provide modern office accommodation with an open corridor to the north. Some steel structural columns with flat lacing bars are exposed. A shallow stair with maple timber treads at the east end leads to all floors. The ladies cloak room to the east is lined with pink Vitrolite tiles and has two deep recesses with mirrors and has a terrazzo floor.
