Developed in France the pioneering Hennebique system used here had enabled the erection of entire reinforced concrete framed buildings and was patented in 1897. Reinforced concrete had been developed in the 1850s but was previously only used for flat structures such as floors and roofs. Reports on conservation issues surrounding the Rosedowns workshop seem to suggest it is one of only two surviving Hennebique buildings in Britain the other being a mill in Swansea but this is misleading to say the least. The Royal Liver Building in Liverpool [Link] is constructed from reinforced concrete and was designed and built by Louis Gustave Mouchel who had arrived in the UK in 1897 with a licence to use Hennebique's methods. The CWS Flour Mills in Avonmouth [Link] is almost certainly another example of the same type of building and I think it quite likely there are many others.
