2. 1853-1855, by the engineer Joseph Quick, extended 1881-1882 by Alexander Frazer. Originally 2 separate engine houses known as 'The Beam' (at the west end of the range) and 'The Bull' (at the east end) from the type of engines they housed. The engine houses are of equal height but their elevations are treated as if they were of 2 ('The Bull') and 3 ('The Beam') storeys. The space between the engine houses was filled in in 1881 with a lower single storey range. The whole group is of Gault brick with stucco cornices and some stucco window dressings on 'The Bull'. 'The Bull' formerly had a chimney stack at the front, but this has been demolished down to the level of the engine house parapet.
