Barry Dock Offices, Grade II* listed administrative building in Barry, Wales.
The Barry Dock Offices features red brick walls with Portland stone dressings, an octagonal clock tower, and composite columns across its eleven-bay facade.
Built between 1897 and 1900 for the Barry Railway Company at a cost of £59,000, the building regulated coal exports during Wales industrial growth period.
The architectural design by Arthur E Bell incorporates Baroque revival elements inspired by Christopher Wren, including a central doorway modeled after St Mary-le-Bow.
Located adjacent to Barry Docks railway station, the offices currently house sections of Vale of Glamorgan Council managing construction and engineering projects.
The building contains numerous windows throughout its structure, with local tradition suggesting there is one window for each day of the calendar year.
