Union Works
II
Workshop and engineering premises. c1867-68. For David and
Andrew Derrin. Brick in Flemish bond with header bond to
curved corner ranges.
EXTERIOR: 2 storeys and 5-window range to Park Street and
Emerson Street; 4-window range to Bear Gardens and 2 bays to
rear elevation. Brick plinth. The elevation articulated into
ranges by 5 round-arched window recesses; windows to ground
floor camber-arched; round-arched above. Brick entablature
band and dentil cornice over centre forming a pedimented
attic.
Wall projecting to either side of centre range as giant
pilaster strips. Flat-arched entrances set in stucco-faced
aediculates consisting of Tuscan pilasters and entablature
with massive dentil cornice. This treatment repeated to Bear
Gardens elevation with segmental-arched windows, the rest
rebuilt along with the wall. Dentil cornice intact, however.
Plinth stops at corner bay. One Diocletian window to rear.
The gable facing elevation of red brick, 2 storeys and
4-window range, to the rear is not of special architectural
interest.
INTERIOR: not inspected.
A refined essay in the "engineer's classical" manner.
