GV II
Warehouse, in use as entertainment centre, formerly Hanneys Fish Warehouse. Mid to late C19. Broadmayne and other dark brickwork in Flemish bond, hipped slate roof. PLAN: a tall warehouse with long return frontage to East Street. EXTERIOR: 4 storeys, 3 x 6 bays. The quay front has 3-light wood mullioned casements to flat segmental heads and stone sills, in sunk panels to wide segmental heads, and central pairs of glazed doors with protective railing to former hauling ways. At ground floor is a wide central opening to concrete lintel and recessed doors, flanked by smaller plank doors with plain transom lights. In the upper 3 levels the ends have broad brick pilasters with a stone capping band, and there is a stepped brick eaves cornice. The East Street front has 6 recessed panels to segmental heads and with brick flat pilasters to a head band; 3-light casements to flush stone sills at each level, but bay 1 has a wide square opening with plank door under a saw-tooth brick head, and bays 2 & 5 have plank loading doors, above wider ground-floor openings. Above the first floor is a thin string in saw-tooth brick. The stepped brick cornice returns from the quay front. INTERIOR: modified and sub-divided to accommodate current display material, but original cast-iron columns, in 2 rows, remain. At the back floors have been removed in 3 bays, leaving full-width heavy square transverse beams with joist housings. The roof is exposed queen-post construction with a central cat-walk, and the upper walls reduce to panels with piers. The stone stairs are contained within a brick shaft. A forthright design which is little altered externally, and with substantial internal remains, it is an important quayside element.
