Tomkinson's Terracotta

Tomkinson Heating on Buxton Road is the place to go if you want a solid fuel stove. The business occupies premises that I believe were once a branch of the Macclesfield Equitable Provident Society, better known as the Coop. The building is constructed of red Ruabon brickwork on all sides with decorative work on all but the rear. The frontage has some wonderful terracotta decoration and under the green paint there are brown glazed tiles. The small plaques above the outer windows on the first floor give the date for this building. AD 1903.
