Wharncliffe Fireclay Works

I have a soft spot for this building on the corner of Broomhall Street and Devonshire Street. I love the various decorative parts which to me raise it above what could have been quite an ordinary works and office building.

What do we know about the Wharncliffe Fire Clay Works and John Armitage & Sons (as seen in the second set of photos)?

It certainly is a bit special and has aroused my curiosity, thank you, but like lysander , I can't remember ever seeing it.
