Including Nos. 1 and 3 Temple Lane. Office building. Dated
1866 and 1869. By J. A. Picton. 3 storeys and basement, 9
bays. Rusticated basement with segmental headed shop
windows. Upper part stone, with 8 granite Tuscan columns to
ground floor, frieze and cornice, and segmental headed
windows with decorative pediment-shaped mouldings. Top
floor has round-arched windows with sills on brackets.
Heavy top cornice on brackets, with dentils, and centre
segmental pediment. The warehouse building fronting to
Temple Lane is integral with the office and part of the same
scheme. It is plainer and less distinguished
architecturally than the front, with a typical warehouse
facade of five storeys and basement, fourteen bays, with two
stacks of loading doors. The chief internal feature of both
sections is the cast iron arch-braced roof trusses.
