C1860 office block to former iron works (now Burrell's Colours). A tall 3 storey
stock brick block with a domestic elevation arranged as a pair of 2 bay house fronts
and with a third one very slightly recessed to left. Upper floors have glazing bar
sash windows with flat gauged arches and stucco sills. Parapet and coping with brick
strings. Three windows, one now a doorway, on ground floor and 3 doorways with
plain stucco surrounds and cornice hoods on elongated console-brackets. Four bay
side elevation to entrance yard with parapet returned. A short section of parapeted
wall projects to flank gateway and contains a round arched doorway for pedestrian
access, large brick keystone and imposts to arch. A wing extends to rear on 2
storeys with parapet. Segmental and round arched windows, succeeded to south by a 2
storey works range with segmental arched windows. Abutting the west side of this
range is a lofty octagonal tapering chimney stack on conical pedestal base,

of one of the few surviving iron foundries once so important for shipbuilding in the
Docklands. See also description for Burrell's wharf West Ferry Road (qv)
