REDRUTH
STATION ROAD
No 2 (Former offices of the Malayan Tin Dredging Company)

(Formerly listed as STATION HILL (north side) Office, the right of a pair opposite Redruth Station carpark)

GV
II

Office. Late C19. Granite ashlar and some killas rubble, slate roof. Rectangular plan. Eclectic style. Single storey and three bays, symmetrical; banded pilasters at the corners and flanking the narrower centre bay, which contains a large round- headed doorway with columnar jambs, moulded head with keystone, and fanlight with altered glazing; the outer bays have large coupled segmental-headed sashed windows with chamfered surrounds (the upper leaves with four panes and the lower without glazing bars); plain frieze, moulded cornice, and parapet interrupted in the centre by a tall Jacobean-style shaped gablet containing stepped triple coved niches with keystones, and flanked by pedestals bearing small urns. Roof of very small slates, with coped gables and gable chimneys.

INTERIOR: understood to be altered but possibly retaining some historic joinery.

HISTORY: constructed in the late-C19 as the office of the Malayan Tin Dredging Company, traders in stocks and shares, probably under the direction of James Wickett (1841-1921). It has been suggested that this building was designed by the Redruth architect James Hicks (1846-1896).
