1830 warehouse, Liverpool Road railway station
1830 warehouse, Liverpool Road railway station, Grade I listed railway warehouse in Castlefield, England
The three-story red brick warehouse features sandstone details, slate roofs, and a timber frame with cast-iron columns in the basement level.
The warehouse, constructed in 1830 as part of Liverpool Road station, marks the beginning of regular passenger railway service between Liverpool and Manchester.
The structure represents a pivotal moment in transportation history as it served the first intercity railway station designed for both passengers and goods transport.
The building operates as part of the Science and Industry Museum, with ongoing conservation work to maintain its structural integrity and historical features.
The warehouse design incorporated two distinct loading levels: street level for carts and an elevated railway platform for direct train-to-storage transfer.
