Description

Square-headed window openings with timber casement windows and cast-iron security bars. Square-headed door opening with iron door. Double steel gates to central bay.

Appraisal
A modest utilitarian structure that forms an integral part of the Locke's Distillery complex. This building dates to the early decades of the twentieth century and is an important part of the chronology and development of this industrial complex. It retains its original form despite the (probable) replacement of the original roof and the raising of the exterior walls.
