Full Description
K Block is a two storey former wagon shed constructed of yellow English bonded brickwork with a pitched slate roof. The original window heads and plinth are of red brick and the windows are of metal. The building is divided into three sections by two firebreak party walls. The N section has original doorways and windows including large loading doors on the first floor. The other two sections have much altered door and window openings. When it was assessed in 2000, the interior of the building was reasonably intact with cast iron columns along the centre supporting the upper floor.<1>
The building has been retained and converted to residential, although it has been divided into two separate buildings.
