Full Description
The Biscuit Warehouse was built in the late 1920s and was extended over the following years as
a typical railhead store. Externally, the building retains much of its original appearance.
Internally the building has been substantially altered and retains little evidence for its original
use. Building plans from the 1970s show the building’s conversion into a training facility and
accommodation for railway workers and the building has changed little since then.
