General notes:
Grading as at Jul 99 : DPeriod : Edwardian (1915)The building at 61-63 Stanley Street was constructed c.1915 on a site which the Sands & McDougall directories suggest was formerly occupied by one or two houses. The directory for 1916 shows No. 61-63 as 'vacant', while the following year the occupant is listed as Bevan and Edwards.It is an Edwardian red brick factory with a gabled parapeted roof. The façade has a centrally located vehicular entrance, which appears to be a later alteration, fitted with a steel roller door. Flanking the entrance are segmented arched windows within recessed segmented arched panels. The gable end has a red brick capping and corbelled piers at each end.It is of local aesthetic and historical interest. The factory is demonstrative of industrial development of the area in the early twentieth century. Substantially intact, the shop is a typical Edwardian utilitarian structure, relieved by robust red brick detailing. Of particular note is the broad gabled façade.
