Listed by Cadw (Reference Number 1225) and thought to have been built between 1804 and 1808,[1] it was originally a single storey warehouse but was later heightened to two stories and extended in red brick.

Horse drawn boat trips operate from the wharf and there is a tea room and gift shop. There was a museum, the Canal Exhibition Centre, in the building from 1974, but by 2000 the exhibition had been moved into the Llangollen Motor Museum.[2][3][4]
