Stanley Dock Tobacco Warehouse

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Stanley Dock Tobacco Warehouse, (Stanley Dock, Liverpool, England) is the world's largest brick warehouse, and at the time of its construction,in 1901, was claimed to be the world's largest building^{[citation needed]}.

The overall design is by A.G. Lyster, the Dock Engineer, but Arthur Berrington almost certainly played a part.

The Warehouse was a late addition to the Stanley Dock complex. The Dock could be entered from the river or by Barge on the Leeds and Liverpool Canal which entered under Howard Street bridge.
