Description

Six-bay single-storey range of red brick under a corrugated asbestos-cement roof. Detail includes wooden barge boards and a moulded brick plinth. Each bay has a window with segmental brick head and chamfered brick sill, the openings boarded over from the outside. Entrance to E gable end, with double sheet-metal doors in original openings. The gable is covered by corrugated steel sheeting. On inspection in 2002, the S side was partly obscured by 2 temporary portakabins and a water tank. To their L is a small late-C20 lean-to toilet block. No openings to W gable end.

Well-preserved interior with brick wall shafts between bays which support King-post roof trusses. The windows contain the original small-pane iron glazing, each with a small pivoting opening light. On the L at the far end, the window has been converted into a door leading into the toilet block. The floor has brick paving to the sides, between which is compact earth, probably infill of the inspection pits.
