An Update

I have now located (i think ) and photographed all the warehouses in the city centre and docklands, i will upload the remainder in the fortnight or so. There are 88 purpose built warehouses with another 23 offices or factories with an integrated warehouse facilty, usually at the rear of the building,this type is almost exclusively found in the city centre. I haven't included offices with a basement warehouse, such as The Albany, Old Hall St.

This little survey has been enjoyable and informative for me and i've appreciated the positive comments from forumers.

A fantastic, and no doubt time consuming effort TGV.

I trust you have a robust pair of Doc Martins kindest footwear!

The Lomax, Cumberland St,about 1880. White glazed-brick is most often used in the side streets/back streets. Can't say i like the white myself, although i've noticed coloured glazed-bricks on some new developments which look ok.

Stanley St,1880's. The close-up of the balcony reminds me of the red brick apartments of the 1890's in London's ,Kensington.

Brilliant photos GV, a really great collection there. Your Crosshall st ones though are Tithebarn st. As much as I think that new(er) fangled glass/balconied building is on the far right of the pic, it's nothing compared to Beetham House and the old Bradford Hotel is it.

Thanks Keayman. Only a townie would know that Tittybarn St ends a further 30 yards east . Should've been GREAT Crosshall st as well. I agree about the Bradford, i took a few close-ups, a fine building.
