J.W. Storrow/Atlas Copco/TL Lifting/MC6

Information copied .

Built as an engineering works at the height of
industrial development in this area, the
building was the premise of J.W. Storrow &
Co. ship chandlers and sailmakers. Storrow’s
became a marine engineering works and
storage for TL Lifting Ltd in 1992. It is one of
the oldest surviving links to the town’s marine
and industrial heritage. It is now opposite the
rear entrance to the new Middlehaven
College.
The building of red brick, is two-storeys, and
includes an interesting and acute angled
plan-form. The elevation facing onto Dock
Street has curved heads to the windows and
the door with a bulls eye window in the gable.
Other features include attractive brick
pilasters and corbelling .
