Description

Introduction

WAREHOUSE, built approximately mid-nineteenth century in Neo-Classical style.

NB: The eastern side facade (originally designed in accordance with the western side facade as described hereafter) has been bricked up by various annexes. In front of the right-hand corner risalit on the facade facing the Buitenhaven stands a small oven building from 1943.

Description

The warehouse is built above a natural stone plinth in grey brick on a rectangular plan, and comprises three storeys and an attic storey under a gabled roof with the ridge line perpendicular to the Buitenhaven. The three-bay front facade (Buitenhaven) has a higher and slightly projecting central risalit, whose gable is crowned with a far-projecting cornice on moulded consoles. The corner risalits are provided with stuccoed corner stones left and right which as pilasters support a high cornice. At the height of the first storey floor there is a stuccoed stringcourse over the full width of the building.

On the ground floor in the eastern corner risalit is a round-arched carriage entrance with double wooden opening doors, provided with a pointed-arched stuccoed ashlar framing. The central risalit has a higher round-arched carriage entrance with double wooden opening doors, provided with round-arched stuccoed ashlar framing on a moulded list.

The facade is at the height of the first and second storey constructed from five window bays of which the middle ones, the hoist doors, are situated in the central risalit. The segmental-arched hoist doors have opening wooden doors and are flanked by two segmental-arched windows in the two corner risalits. The two windows on the first storey in the western corner risalit are higher than the others. The hoist doors and windows are set in a stuccoed framing with keystone. On the attic storey of the central risalit is a hoist door in conformity with the others, with wooden hoist beam. The western side facade has on the ground floor six tall round-arched windows with above on the second and third storey six half-height segmental-arched windows. All windows are crowned by stretcher brickwork and provided with sandstone drip mouldings. The facade is finished with a wooden gutter which is decoratively supported by projecting wall anchors and consoles.

The southern facade (Tuinlaan) likewise has a three-bay layout, but is executed more soberly. On the ground floor in the corner risalits are large round-arched windows crowned by pointed-arched stretcher brickwork and with sandstone drip mouldings. Both windows are provided with wrought-iron decorative grillework. In the central risalit is a round-arched carriage entrance likewise crowned with pointed-arched stretcher brickwork. The storeys are provided with segmental-arched windows and doors with stretcher relieving arches and sandstone drip mouldings. In the central risalit there are three hoist doors with double opening wooden doors, on either side per storey two windows. The facade is finished with a modest wooden cornice which in conformity with the front elevation steps up in the central risalit but in contrast to the front elevation follows the ridge line in the corner risalits.

In the interior the (heavy) wooden construction is of importance.

Valuation

Intact warehouse, built approximately mid-nineteenth century in Neo-Classical style, of general importance by virtue of its architectural and cultural-historical value. Also of importance by virtue of its townscape value and ensemble value on the Buitenhaven.
