Abstract:
Building recording and fabric analysis was undertaken at New Union Mill, Grosvenor Street West, Birmingham. The New Union Mill was built c. 1813, and the buildings were arranged around three sides of a quadrangular courtyard next to the canal. Much of the complex including the mill itself has been demolished, and the surviving structure, which was the focus of the recording exercise, comprises the SE range and part of the SW range. The SE range contained the main carriage entrance from Grosvenor Street West, and was largely given over to offices, though the NE end may have accommodated manufacturing or warehousing operations. The SW range appears to have contained domestic accommodation. The symmetrical SE front towards the street is a façade that does not reflect the internal layout, and was evidently intended to present an attractive public face. There has been a good deal of alteration, including the replacement of most of the windows with replicas, the reconstruction of large areas of brickwork to the rear of the SE range, and the disappearance of many internal features, such as fireplaces, doors and skirting boards. However, it is the early 19th-century character that prevails, and the building remains a significant piece of early industrial architecture.
