Description:
Wilberfore Warehouse and its two neighbours, built 1831, in an area badly damaged in WWII, were restored and converted to bars and restaurant. Two other warehouses followed to be converted to restaurant and hotel with a roof garden and exhibition area. The restoration left the exteriors largely untouched. Rescued items from other buildings are widely incorporated e.g. Victorian pulpits. Restoration was done with old and natural materials.
