Workshop and engineering premises. c1867-68. For David and Andrew Derrin. Brick in Flemish bond with header bond to curved corner ranges. EXTERIOR: 2 storeys and 5-window range to Park Street and Emerson Street; 4-window range to Bear Gardens and 2 bays to rear elevation. Brick plinth. The elevation articulated into ranges by 5 round-arched window recesses; windows to ground floor camber-arched; round-arched above. Brick entablature band and dentil cornice over centre forming a pedimented attic. Wall projecting to either side of centre range as giant pilaster strips. Flat-arched entrances set in stucco-faced aediculates consisting of Tuscan pilasters and entablature with massive dentil cornice. This treatment repeated to Bear Gardens elevation with segmental-arched windows, the rest rebuilt along with the wall. Dentil cornice intact, however. Plinth stops at corner bay. One Diocletian window to rear. The gable facing elevation of red brick, 2 storeys and 4-window range, to the rear is not of special architectural interest. INTERIOR: not inspected. A refined essay in the "engineer's classical" manner.
