The building was built as offices and factory by Thomas Royse Lysaght, for his brother John Lysaght of John Lysaght and Co. with the buildings being completed by R Milverton Drake. The site was previously owned by Acraman and Company and was involved in the manufacture of corrugated-iron and pre-fabricated buildings, which were exported around the world and particular to settlers in Australia.[1] By 1878 the factory employed 400 men and produced 1000 tons of galvanised iron sheet a month. The company also diversified into making constructional ironwork, exported around the world from Bristol.[2][3]
The building was home to the head office of renewable energy consultancy GL Garrad Hassan.[1]
The company offices are Grade II* listed.[8] The offices were built in a Gothic style with a domed atrium decorated with golden Doulton tiles. The offices have wood panelling and throughout the building are elaborate decorations.[1]
In January 2018, the building was leased by Colliers International on behalf of a private landlord to the newly founded film production company, Screenology. The building is now under a ten-year contract with Screenology.[9]
