Another view of the well lit first floor at Birmingham
Central Good Depot's warehouse showing boxes of Quaker Oats. As can be seen the
roof is built using timber joists and beams with planking laid beneath the
tiled roof and all supported on steel columns and beams. The two pipes seen on
either side at the top of the column indicates that that the rainwater was
collected from gullies running between the pitched roofs before being directed
into the down pipes which in turn were emptied via the steel column.
