There is something forbidding and dungeon-like about this building. At first glance the design might seem functional, but look more closely at the stonework of the fence-pillar in the foreground - there is nothing haphazard about the detail, it's quite stylishly done, and the style belongs to the early 1900's. Has this place ever been used as a film location? Remove the water company signs and the aerials, and it's got loads of potential . . .
