GV II*
Includes: No.125 WATER LANE Holbeck.
Flax mill warehouse, now commercial premises. 1808, altered
C20. For John Marshall. Brick in English garden wall bond
(5:1), slate roof. 3-storey, 10-window range. Segmental
brick-arched doors and windows, the latter with small-pane
glazing and projecting stone sills; some inserted windows; an
original door to right of centre and 2nd-floor loading doors
on west (yard) side.
INTERIOR: yard door, right opens into the original stair well:
slate-type stone cantilevered treads, worn and repaired, 2
straight flights to each floor, wooden hand rail;
cruciform-section cast-iron columns supporting inverted
T-section cast-iron beams from which spring segmental brick
arches.
This was the first building Marshall built on the south side
of Hol Beck when he extended his works in 1808 and it
illustrates the early use of the cast-iron frame, being the
earliest surviving of his Leeds buildings to use the cast-iron
column and beam and brick-arch system. The warehouse stood at
the north end of a row of mill buildings on Marshall Street
(qqv).
