Carlton Building, Carlton Place
Image: © Alan Murray-Rust Taken: 27 Jun 2019
Warehouse and offices built 1908 for Finnie & Co. wholesale ironmongers. A five storey and basement, 9 by 3 bay red sandstone warehouse replacing part of the original 1804 terrace – see https://www.geograph.org.uk/photo/6195048. The style, and the choice of red sandstone, is totally out of keeping with the rest of the terrace. The top two floors were damaged by fire in 1969 and the front of the building subsequently reduced to the current form. Unlike the neighbouring terrace, this building is not listed.
