Another of Lewis Cubitt's buildings which has a similar look to that of the Station. Built to store grain that was brought to London from Up t'North (Lincolnshire) this was a very early example of intermodal transport.
The Railway delivered the grain to the store where it was transhipped into road transport, or very cleverly, into barges that were able to sail into the building at basement level allowing gravity to assist the transfer of grain.
It is now an art college and the public may go into the building to admire the transformation
Of note, no steam engines worked in the building due to fire risk, movement was by horses or ropes and pulleys worked by an external "accumulator" Some stables remain in the Western transit shed.
The building included the granary store, the transhipment shed and train assembly shed where trains were put together in the right order for the onward journeys.
