JD Wetherspoon has applied for permission to carry out repairs to the historic Sheffield Water Works Company pub in Sheffield city centre.
The pub, located on the corner of Division Street overlooking Barkers Pool, is housed within a Grade II-listed Victorian building. Although the site has been covered in scaffolding and protective hoardings, the pub remains open to customers.
The building was originally constructed in 1867 as offices for the Sheffield Water Works Company. Designed in a grand palazzo style, it was intended to resemble a 600-year-old Italian Renaissance palace.
According to the Wetherspoon website, the building later became home to the Graves mail order business founded by John George Graves. The website notes that Graves made several contributions to Sheffield, including Graves Park and Graves Art Gallery.
Wetherspoon has submitted an application to Sheffield City Council seeking listed building consent for repairs to sections of the building's ornate stonework. The proposed work includes repairs to a parapet along the front of the first floor and to decorative carvings depicting Greek and Roman water gods above the windows.
A report prepared by Harrison Ince architects states that the scheme will involve "minimal intervention" and "like-for-like repair" using traditional conservation techniques. The report describes the work as conservation-led and aimed at addressing damage and deterioration while preserving the building's historic character.
The architects said the repairs are necessary to ensure the building's continued preservation, safety and long-term structural integrity. The report states that the proposals were developed following recent condition assessments and discussions with Sheffield City Council.
It adds that the work is intended to respect the building's character, appearance and historic significance while dealing with safety concerns and deterioration caused by age and weathering.
The pub previously known as Lloyds No. 1 Cafe Bar in Sheffield city centre has changed its name to Sheffield Waterworks Company.
