Summary

edit
Description
English: Vulcan Street. Standing at the corner of Vulcan Street and Dock Street these buildings in the mid 19c directly faced onto the river bank which is now perhaps 100m away across land reclaimed from waste slag created by Bolchow and Vaughan Ironworks, the first on Middlesbrough. The first building (up to the double gates) was original a sail loft for servicing the sailing vessels coming into the docks. Afterwards it became a coffee tavern. This building has now been demolished to make way for the proposed development of the area (http://www.teesvalleyregeneration.co.uk/pages/project/project=Middlehaven ). Prior to demolition a hoist was discovered in the roof space which would have been used to lift the sails from ground to first floor level where large windows provided plenty of natural light. The hoist has now been removed to the Dorman Museum in Middlesbrough.
