SD8332NE COAL STREET 906-1/15/41 (West side) Nos.1 AND 3

GV II

Pair of warehouses. Early to mid C19; altered and renovated 1994. Coursed squared sandstone (roofs not visible). Built as a gabled pair flanking the entrance to a courtyard known as Paradise Street (and linked by a C20 bridge or "gang" at 3rd floor). EXTERIOR: each is 4-storeys (plus a basement to No.1), with a narrow 3-window gabled facade, a continuous full-height loading slot in the centre with wooden doors to all floors, timber lintel and a blocked square aperture above for the former hoist jib; and a coped gable. Otherwise, the openings differ slightly. No.1 has a doorway to the right at ground floor, with a plain surround and altered door, a blocked basement window to the left, tall windows to the 1st and 2nd floors and shorter windows to the 3rd floor. No.3 has a doorway to the left (like that at ground floor of No.1) now covered by a sliding door, and an inserted doorway to the right; and, on the upper floors, small windows to the left and 4-pane sashed windows to the right. All these windows now have replacement 4-pane sashed glazing with exposed boxes. The 4-window inner return walls have blocked windows to the basement of No.1 and the ground floor of No.3, sashed windows to the upper floors like those at the front, and a C20 bridge at 3rd floor. The rear gable walls of both now have replacement three 4-pane sashed windows on each floor above ground floor. INTERIOR not accessible at time of inspection (but internal renovation appears to be either in progress or recently completed); heavy timber beams visible through windows of the north block. HISTORY: an unusual and reasonably intact survival of a type of commercial/industrial building typical of textile maufacturing towns in the early C19, and perhaps built by a putting-out manufacturer.
