Siemens Industrial Turbomachinery Ltd. Bays 28 and 29. In the early 1970s (when I was here) this was the Ruston Training Centre. West of the former basin, this was probably on land owned by Shuttleworth from 1841 and as such will have been one of the earlier buildings of the 1850s to 1880s. The walls, whilst largely original, have had changes in fenestration and on waterside South, doorways inserted. The east gable wall is metal clad and adjacent brickwork on the north façade looks relatively modern. What can be seen of the west gable is original.
