What is recorded here
Millstream in Townparks had its roof taken off during renovation, a bold move for a granary. Keeping grain dry had been the whole business; then somebody arrived with qualifications and opened it to the weather.
Corner-sited attached five-bay three-storey warehouse, built c.1870, now undergoing renovation. Roof removed during building work. Uncoursed random rubble stone walling. Square-headed window openings, brick dressings, flush sills, painted timber casements (most removed or altered). No door openings visible behind hoarding.
This, prominently located, warehouse stands as a reminder of the industrial heritage of the town. Although undergoing conversion at the time of survey the massing and use of rubble stone in walling is typical of the type.
