Dated 1874 at the top. I believe that cotton was once stored inside. An elegiac sight. It is due to be pulled down in favour of flats. I don't know the state of the internal fabric (not much appears to remain), but it might have made for some interesting conversions. At the time an antique dealer had made a home in at least part of the building.
