46 to 50 Sackville Street A quick glance at this building, on
the corner of Whitworth Street and Sackville Street,
would give you the impression that it is one building
occupying a rectangular block. In fact, it is two
buildings both of which are Grade II Listed.
Numbers 48 & 50 Sackville Street form an L-shaped
building that wraps around the much smaller and slightly
lower 46 Sackville Street, that occupies the corner of
Sackville Street and Brazil Street (see below).
 Both buildngs were built in the 19th
century as warehouses. The building, whose address
is 48 & 50 Sackville Street, was built circa 1880-90
and is described as having a trapezium form on an island
site. The Goad map of 1896 indicates that it was a
shipping warehouse occupied by William Graham &
Co. Number 46 was also a shipping warehouse owned
this time by Ph Ziegler & Co. In 2018 it
appears that both buildings are mixed-use involving
bars, restaurants and offices on the upper floors.
48 & 50 Sackville Street
 Below you see the building looking eastwards along Whitworth Street.  The entrance on Whitworth Street bears the name "Regency House"  This is the view along Sackville Street     46 Sackville Street  The initials carved in stone
below the oriel window appear to be DC which
suggests that the original owner wasn't Mr Zeigler.
  Oddly it makes no reference to
number 50.
