It was later used as a factory, and its dramatic industrial proportions have been sensitively converted into a group of apartments, with extensive communal gardens overlooking the river. Tere are barbeque facilities, a residents’ swimming pool and gym, as well as a function room that can be hired for private events. Tis apartment also has a covered car parking space.
