Abstract: |
A programme of historic building recording of the extant buildings at No. 317 Kingsland Road, Union Wharf, Hackney was undertaken prior to their demolition and replacement with a new secondary school and sixth form. The work was carried out in response to a planning condition on the planning permission 2013/1895. The historic building survey revealed that the present buildings ear-marked for demolition comprise a complex aggregation of multi-phase structures and buildings, of which the earliest parts may date from the first half of the 19th century, with later 19th century enlargements, alterations and modern additions. The survey has shown that the principal building was constructed as a purpose built stable for the coal merchants, Reeves and Briggs, comprising 11 horse individual stalls, with a hayloft and granary above. Around the turn of the 1870s the wharf was acquired by Thomas Blyth, a successful cement and lime merchant. It was during his tenure that the stable was enlarged and remodelled and an ornate office building and boundary wall were added. |
