White-painted brick, English bond 1:3 and 1:5, C20 tile roof
of 3 parallel narrow gabled ranges, paired eaves brackets.
4 storeys, 5 first-floor windows to Globe Road frontage:
segmental arches, C20 frames, stone sills, the top storey
windows almost square. Ground floor: 2 wide entrances centre
and left, one blocked, steps up to narrow door with overlight
far right, 5-light window with slender glazing bars to its
left.
Rear, canal facade: blocked door (formerly window) flanked by
narrow windows left; far right: round-arched opening with C20

INTERIOR: not seen in detail: front entrance is into staircase
lobby, a straight flight with bulbous turned balusters rises

The Globe Iron Foundry was established on this site in 1844,
and gave its name to the newly established road; this building
housed the fitting-up shop and probably the engine house as
the openings rear right suggest.
