The property comprises the remaining part of the St Rollox works, originally built in 1853, now extending to approximately 279,303 sq ft and still operational as a rail maintenance depot.
The site is fully secured by perimeter palisade fencing with the main road entrance situated on Charles Street to the south, with a Gatehouse and security barrier in place. There is an additional gated access point to the north-west which is accessed from Cobden Road to the rear of the adjacent Tesco Supermarket.
