Dale Street Warehouse is an early 19th-century warehouse in the Piccadilly Basin area of Manchester city centre, England. It is a Grade II* listed building as of 10 November 1972.[1] It is the earliest surviving canal warehouse in the city.[2] The building is dated 1806 with the initials "WC" on the datestone, indicating that it was designed by William Crosley,[3] an engineer who worked with William Jessop on the inner-Manchester canal system.
Constructed of watershot millstone grit blocks, the four-storey building has timber floors, supported throughout by cast-iron columns, a feature which now makes it unique amongst Manchester warehouses.[3] The base of the building incorporates four boatholes, which allowed boats to unload their cargoes inside of the warehouse. The warehouse also incorporates a "subterranean wheel-pit containing a 16-foot water-wheel used to drive hoists both in this building and in a former warehouse to the south via a line-shaft tunnel which mostly survives beneath the car-park".[1]
For many years, the building was a shop and was described in 2000 as "sadly neglected";[4] the warehouse has now been converted to office space and a café and renamed Carver's Warehouse.
