HISTORY: originally included as carpenters' shop, seasoning room, central coopers' shop and store, and first-floor N offices. The coopers were displaced from the Old Cooperage (qv) by the Naval Ordnance Department from 1891. The external design of the new Cooperage followed that of the earlier buildings at Royal William, and it is included for its architectural quality and group value with the rest of the Yard, a unique planned industrial enterprise.
